S03 E06 - Paul Carrington

Crunch & Roll

Dec 11 2023 • 1 hr 52 mins

Foxy calls him The Professor. You might know him as The Funster. But his passport says Paul Carrington.

Paul has to be one of the most well known presenters in the north of England and is guaranteed to have worked on a station near you, if you live north of Sutton-cum-Duckmanton. Piccadilly, Signal, Viking, Buzz, Minster, Pulse - We'll let Paul tell you the rest.

There's stories about working for Timmy Mallett (along with Professor Brain Cox, Chris Evans and Nick Robinson); how he helped the biggest pop group of the 80s escape a hoard of screaming fans (involves an old Ford Escort); and how he's embarrassed about being The Funster.

It's a long one (so we'll keep this bit short), but absolutely worth sticking with to the end. Enjoy!
