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:
“from above, thin squeaks of radio static,
The captured fume of space foams in our ears—”
—Hart Crane (1899–1932)
“There was a girl who was running the traffic desk, and there was a woman who was on the overnight for radio as a producer, and my desk assistant was a woman. So when the world came to an end, we took over.”
—Marya McLaughlin, U.S. television newswoman. As quoted in Women in Television News, ch. 3, by Judith S. Gelfman (1976)
“The radio ... goes on early in the morning and is listened to at all hours of the day, until nine, ten and often eleven o’clock in the evening. This is certainly a sign that the grown-ups have infinite patience, but it also means that the power of absorption of their brains is pretty limited, with exceptions, of course—I don’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings. One or two news bulletins would be ample per day! But the old geese, well—I’ve said my piece!”
—Anne Frank (1929–1945)
