 The station's flagship programme takes to the airwaves at 9.30 every morning. A typical programme can range from political debate to expert discussion to a battle of listener opinions. Either way, the agenda is set by YOU!

Midlands Today does exactly what it says on the tin - if it's happening in the Midlands today, you'll hear about it on the most popular station in Laois, Offaly and Westmeath.

Sinéad Hubble prepares each show. If you want to get involved, give her a call. What topic would you like us to cover?

Your input is essential. It's your station, your programme, so make it your own.

Your feedback is essential.

All enquiries will be dealt with in absolute confidence. If you don't want to go public, this will be fully respected.
