My first memories of radio are from when I was a young boy and I look back on them fondly. Every Sunday my father would pull out these two HUGE speakers and he would blast MetroFM. In 2013, while I was chasing that diploma and focusing on my studies, I came to the realisation that I wanted to do something in radio. An opportunity presented itself when a radio station decided they were looking for their next radio star through a talent search competition. The auditions started at 9am Saturday morning and ended at 2am Sunday morning and I was there the entire time. Would I get the gig? Was this the moment everything would fall into place and I would kickstart the career I've always dreamed of? This is my radio story... Stacey and J Sbu: Started from the bottom now they're here
