I went to the first AFTRS radio course—before the “R” was even in the name! What I learnt about radio at AFTRS stayed with me throughout my career. Since then, countless others have followed that same path. Now, as former students it’s our turn to give back. AFTRS is building a strong Alumni Advisory Group. Radio must be part of it. EOIs open now! ✍️ aftrsevents.tfaforms.net/474… And it’s survey time! Also please do this quick survey. 📣 AFTRS new triennial alumni survey is now open! It’s about what you value & how you see our community growing. Share your thoughts by Aug 22 + go in the draw to win 1 of 3 $250 JB Hi-Fi gift cards. 👉 surveymonkey.com/r/N8NB7FR More info: aftrs.edu.au/alumni/alumni-a… #AFTRS #radio #audio #alumni

Vale Judith Whelan. Listened to the talent, listened to her teams and most importantly listened to and understood the radio. She will be so greatly missed.

Meanwhile in a parallel universe RATS are always available and indeed on the throw out racks in Berlin. And how the worms turns - Germany has now ranked Australia as a high risk country.
COVID management in Germany. Test centres literally on every corner in Berlin with rarely a queue. Fully certified Rapids free and PCR tests 60 Euros. Do it yourself RATS in every chemist and supermarket. Around 2 - 3 Euros each. How good is Australia then?

There were people behind the scenes who helped with difficult days and technical questions. We were funded by the Regional and Local division of the ABC thank you to @michaelmasonp and Patrick Emmett and @whelan60 Our final mix was beautifully engineered by David Le May.

Big day, big announcement - all the best Ashley
As announced on @abcadelaide this morning, after a long break I've decided not to return to the airwaves next year. I've spent more than half my working life with ABC Radio in SA including 17 years on weekends. It's been a privilege and a pleasure. Thank you.

Thank you Zan!
Tomorrow we farewell @michaelmasonp after 35 years at the ABC. 🖤 You might not know Michael, but understand that he found or nurtured many of the people you love on air, and behind the scenes across ABC radio. He’s one of the greats. He’ll be missed. Thank you Mase-dawg. x

Thank you Linda and again thank you for the absolutely best speech andsend off.
Tomorrow is @michaelmasonp last day working for @ABCaustralia - he will be the last ever Director of ABC Radio. It was one of the great joys of my career working with this guy. His talent and humor will be sorely missed. Enjoy your last day MM.
