Tune in, or if you like pop down to the studio to open your presents and have mince pies and eggnog with us.*

There’ll be:

  • A special Christmas Tiiiiime Tunnel – guess the Christmas Past.
  • Noel’s Christmas Presents from the top of the BT Tower.
  • Mince Pies
  • Christmas messages from the stars
  • Egg Nog
  • A Sweary Christmas with Wes Mundell in the Sweary News room.
  • Carols, presents and crackers.
  • Playing games, and watching The Great Escape
  • Emergency chairs
  • After Eight Mints

*Seriously, please come, but you’ll have to bring your own presents and food (we’ll supply the crackers tho’).

EDIT: Free iPhone Radio App

Paul from Rhubarb is over in Le Mans, the lucky fella, and he found a blog post about listening to Radio Le Mans on the iPhone. It finds a new FREE radio app — and it’s one that will play Rhubarb too. Here’s the instuctions, cribbed from there and altered so you listen to brum-based community radio, rather than car driving.

Step 1: Head over to iTunes and grab the free app Fstream (will open iTunes).

Step 2: Open Fstream and tap the star (favorites) at the bottom.
Step 3: Tap Edit at the top/left.
Step 4: Tap Add new webradio
Step 5: Enter this url. (don’t worry about format and bitrate)

[EDIT: The stream URL has changed, you may need to update your player]

http://streams.rhubarbradio.com:8000/listen.pls

Step 6: Tap Save. Tap Done.
Step 7: Tap Play at the bottom (next to the Star)
Step 8: Tap your saved url in the list. It will buffer in and play.
