I wanted to be a programmer a few years ago but I just couldn’t put my head around it. Considering AI is becoming a thing I made the right call there.

    Radio production.

    Got a degree, moved to London, applied for loads of jobs, and… nothing.

    Trouble is, I needed to be paid, and at the entry level it’s all unpaid internships and volunteering at community stations. Unless you know someone who can get you through the door, of course.

    Stuck with making a podcast in my spare time for a few years, but ultimately lost the spark.

    These days I work in health and safety management and stream a radio show every Monday night that about 15 people tune into live, and 30-odd people listen to on Mixcloud. It makes me no money, but I enjoy it.
