Kaleidoscope is one of the ways by which 5mbs links our station to the wider music community. As well it looks further afield, from time to time, at local drama, art and literature. It is an important link to the wider listening audience as I talk with some very interesting people about what involves  them most. 

Broadcast on Wednesday 6.pm and Saturday 11am. In your own time you can access it through Listen on Demand via 5mbs.com.

Program for Wednesday 24 September 6.00pm and Saturday 27 September 11.00.

I speak to Julia Dmochowska-Paech, Angelina Zucco, Pat Lillywhite and Damien Coghlan
