20.12.2010 Final 2010 show

20.12.2010 Leanan Sidhe talks to Thomas Janak about wild and domesticated rats in an attempt to dispell the myths. Given that 95 % of all animals in laboratories are mice and rats, this conversation was long overdue.

The show also features a short interview with Karl Goodsell, who is going to spend four months as a "Cove Guardian" in Taiji/Japan, where the dolphin and whale killings are happening "traditionally" between September and March.

We will be off air over the Christmas/New Year festivities and the first show in 2011will go out live on January 10th 2011.

December 10th 2010 - International Animal Rights Day 4-hours-special broadcast

WILD TIME was on air for a 4-hours-special broadcast to highlight the International Animal Rights Day. Time flew by while great interviews went out locally and globally.

Listeners from the UK, Germany, Sweden, America and Australia texted in during the show and congratulated the team on a job well done.

We had a lot of fun in the studio. Preston FM and Dublin South FM both aired an hour each using WILD TIME footage to promote the day, which is highly appreciated.

For us the year is far from over since we'll be back on air on Monday, December 13th with our fourth and final anti-whaling special before airing this year's last show on December 20th.

For more see post below!

A heartfelt thank you to all our interviewees and listeners without whom WILD TIME wouldn't be possible.
