Sherry Grant - Can you tell us about how you got into broadcasting and when you decided that this was for you?
Keith Keller - I had a show, a little radio show, after school, in high school, in the 80s, and, you know, I went to school in, you know, year 11, and I went after school, rode my bike up to the radio station, and I would play songs, and I thought:
"This is good. This is fun. This is what I want"
The light bulb went off right when I was 16.
I thought, This is what I want. I want to do this.
So I moved to Melbourne in 1984 I went to radio school in 1984 three times a week for a year.
Unfortunately for me, and a lot of creative people are like this, we I didn't crack the my ultimate goal, but I it's in my blood.
So, I went into the world and bought a house and got married and did all the sensible things but back in I got back into it in 2006 through a site called Blog Talk Radio, which is very similar to what clubhouse would become in 2020.
I did this show via my phone in 2008 actually till 2010.
We did 108 shows and we did a show once a week, on a Monday.
.... and it just got me thinking:
"This is it? This is what I want to do."
This is what I want to do, to promote I was working for myself by that time. This is how I want to promote myself.
This is what I prefer.
I don't like to write, I can speak in public, but I found that quite tiring.
.... but I love talking on the radio, and so I've been doing it ever since 2008 and I love it, and we've been doing lots and lots of shows together, haven't we?
