Radio
Jason & Iyare started broadcasting together in 2001 a one hour show called ‘The Presence’ on Monday nights on the Student Broadcast Network, playing hip hop RnB, UK Garage and dancehall for nine months until the launch of BBC 1Xtra.
The duo have broadcast the Breakfast show at 6am-9am every weekday since the station launched in August 2002. The show is a magazine / lifestyle show which covers everything from new black music, to current in news and entertainment.
In 2006, they set up a separate radio production company called ON IT INDUSTRIES, who produced original radio productions such as the Radio 1Xtra weekday M1X show, as well as various documentaries.

Famous quotes containing the word radio:
“England has the most sordid literary scene I’ve ever seen. They all meet in the same pub. This guy’s writing a foreword for this person. They all have to give radio programs, they have to do all this just in order to scrape by. They’re all scratching each other’s backs.”
—William Burroughs (b. 1914)
“Local television shows do not, in general, supply make-up artists. The exception to this is Los Angeles, an unusually generous city in this regard, since they also provide this service for radio appearances.”
—Fran Lebowitz (b. 1950)
“Denouement to denouement, he took a personal pride in the
certain, certain way he lived his own, private life,
but nevertheless, they shut off his gas; nevertheless,
the bank foreclosed; nevertheless, the landlord called;
nevertheless, the radio broke,
And twelve o’clock arrived just once too often,”
—Kenneth Fearing (1902–1961)
