First show in 2011 was a real hit!!

Studioguest Abi Weake from the Fat Fluffs Rabbit Rescue with WILD TIME host Thomas Janak

Both Sally-Barton Bodley from Fat Fluffs and Allie Green from the Dangerous Dogs Act Watch, who were both scheduled to be on the show, were ill and sent "stand-ins" Abi Weake from Fat Fluffs and Maria Daines from DDA - and they were both brilliantly engaging.

2010 - a year in review

67 shows in 2010 – last year was indeed WILD TIME’s wildest year to date. We have been on many different stations in 2010 (DIGITAL HUB FM,TGIF, DSFM, TCR FM), our online version flourished and for a short while we even added a video version to WILD TIME.

WILD TIME met and talked to the most engaging and courageous guests, which included, among others, 9 year old Jack Lanting, acting legend Rutger Hauer, Whitney Hillmann, Oriana Kalama, Colin Ridell, Dave Wawak, Steve Best, Matt Ellerbeck as well as numerous animal rights groups from Animal Equality to the league against cruelt sports, Sea Shepherd, Hunt Sabs and many more.

We celebrated our 100th show in summer 2010 in Dublin, put together a 4 week anti-whaling special and brought you a 4 – hour special on the international animal rights day and more.

Our listeners responded well, making WILD TIME a truly global show with over 800 fans on the facebook™ page and nearly 6000 visits to our blogs.

Due to the high number of interviews and footage, not all shows can be archived, yet there are many shows still online to be enjoyed and shared.

We’re back on air on January 10th 2010 with an additional show on Fridays (January only) and more great guests.

Thanks for listening and please keep supporting the show in the new year!
