Redcoat Radio ran on Bay Radio, Aberystwyth University's Student Radio Station between 2012 and 2015. Hosted by three intrepid adventurers (and later one work experience boy), they discuss everything and nothing. There's a whole lotta nothing. This is a podcast version of the full show; all banter, no music. Unfortunately, some episodes are lost to time, such is the way of things. The good news is, a good chunk survived and is ready to be listened to now! Lemme just count you in...

Editor's note: As it's the end of term, the guys are a bit buzzed on Generic Energy Drink, and as such get a bit rowdy sometimes. This affects the audio quality in places, but the content is the same level of wacky as always. Enjoy!
