Big Podcast Radio from Russia


I received a nice email from Vasily of Big Podcast after his show was relayed by a Dutch pirate on Saturday.

He writes: "It was a surprise for me to learn that we were being simulcast on shortwave from Holland. This was never in our plans, as we are a weekly, live internet based radio show from Moscow for Russian language listeners around the world. Imagine the look on my face, when I got the news that we were heard on 6238 Khz all over Europe. Nevertheless, thanks to our friends in the Netherlands for making this transmission possible. Perhaps we will soon be back on the Pirate Bands. You never know…

Our internet show is on Saturdays, starting at 16:00 UTC, at  http://bigpodcastradio.com and  http://bigpodcastradio.ru

streaming. Just go to http://bit.ly/nordamradio or join our Facebook
