'Do you even stream, bro?'
Distance is no longer a barrier to enjoying your favourite radio shows. Whether you’re lounging on the sun-drenched beaches of Bali, skiing down the slopes in Switzerland, or exploring the bustling streets of Tokyo, you can still stay in touch with your favourite radio station. East Coast Radio is making it easier than ever for you to tune in from around the globe and be part of the action.
Today, we’re thrilled to welcome two dedicated listeners from Switzerland live on air with Stacey and J Sbu! It’s not every day that we get to connect with some of you who live so far away, and we couldn’t be more excited to have them with us.
These Swiss listeners, originally from Richards Bay, have been avid followers of East Coast Radio. They’ll be sharing their unique perspectives, experiences, and perhaps even a bit of Swiss flair with our listeners.
