Ipswich Today

In an era of constant change in technology and radio station ownership will local radio survive in the future? In this special episode two guests explore the past and try to predict the future. David Greenwood and Dr Ashley Jones are media experts and both have a strong connection to Ipswich and its original radio station 4IP. The show features 4IP jingles from the 60s and 70s and a Color Radio news bulletin from 1975.
