Words
Ho-Ho-Ho-Ho and welcome back,
Here we go again - another Christmas with a wave and I am not sure if we are lucky to have no restrictions, if it’s all based on science, or if it's just pure public exposure for the sake of “boosting the economy” in “challenging times”. Thanks to the universe, the public seems to be closer to reality than the government who is paid for it. I know I know, it’s a topic for wider discussion..
I hope you are already with those you want to spend the festive period with, or you’re on the way to them. You didn't buy an anti 5g necklace for anyone, avoided using Amazon this year, your Spotify and facebook accounts are deleted. Believe me, it’s good for everyone.
Apologies for skipping last week’s newsletter. It’s been a little overwhelming to deal with the Omicron vs DJs battle. The entire pandemic made running a radio station very hard work on my mental health and I think I am very, very tired. But I promise you - Netil Radio will always continue to be a safe space for creative minds, reflecting the momentum of reality from different angles and exercising critical thinking much needed these days.
I wish you a merry, calm and peaceful Christmas
Stay connected

Coming Up
Due to the Omicron outbreak, many cool guests are cancelled, djs are tested positive and it seems to continue this way for a while. Our studio stays open and the program is running, but we expect plenty of pre-recorded shows and changes in program. Keep an eye on our Airtime page, or gallery for updates.
