MLB On BBC 5 Live Radio
5 live started broadcasting a Major League Baseball audio feed each Sunday night on the 4th July 2010 with Jonny Gould hosting the broadcast and Josh Chetwynd providing analysis between innings. The series returned in 2011 with an earlier timeslot of 6pm - 10pm every Sunday but Gould was replaced by Nat Coombs.
In July 2012 Smooth Radio announced it had hired Jonny Gould to anchor its extended breakfast sports bulletins during the 2012 Summer Olympics during Simon Bates' Breakfast Show. Bates and Gould had previously worked together on Talk Radio some years earlier. Gould proved to be popular with listeners and continued to present sports updates after the Olympics ended.
