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 6.00pm and Saturday 11.00am. You can access Kaleidoscope through Listen on Demand via 5mbs.com. in your own time.
