PROFILE

What did you want to be when you were little?

On the radio. I used to listen to Squad Cars, Jet Jungle and later AudioMix and thought ;

What soothes you?

Pilsner Urquell and any wine produced at Fredericksburg by Rupert and Rothschild - their Classique is jolly good value.

What irks you?

Taxis...

Is there a book you read that changed your life?

The music you listen to most often?

Anything my wife puts on.
World Music, acid jazz generally are top of the list.

Who would you go to the ends of the earth for?

My wife.

Who is your greatest source of inspiration?

Ditto. She doesn't let me get away with a thing.

Do you have any 'show off' coffee table books in your home?

Nope - they just gather dust and take up the space where my feet should be while watching TV.

Ever been left speechless on the air?

Every time Aki Anastasiou walks past the studio.
There is something about him that makes me speechless.

Who is the one person you would love to interview, but haven't yet had the pleasure?

Warren Buffet - and if I timed it right, his good mate Bill Gates might be in the room with him at the same time - the two richest guys in the world giving chunks of it away to do good work. Awesome.
