Mencap Me Time Podcast 9

💪 Welcome to the Me Time Podcast – Episode 9!
In this episode, the group talk about their experience of learning podcasting and broadcasting at 96.9 ALL FM, sharing how it felt to step into the studio, use the microphones, and find their voices together.

This episode was created by a second group of Me Time Tameside trainees, following the completion of their podcasting course. It marks a big milestone, with eleven Me Time participants now trained in podcasting skills they can continue to use in the future!

✨ In this episode, you’ll hear:
🎙️ How it felt to record in a real radio studio for the first time
😊 Reflections on confidence, happiness, nerves, and trying something new
🤝 The importance of teamwork, support from staff, and helping each other
🧠 New skills learned, from using computers and apps to taking part in quizzes and games
🎶 Ideas for future episodes, including animals, markets, music, and everyday interests
💬 Honest reflections on believing in yourself, doing something that felt hard, and realising “I can do this”

This episode is full of warmth, encouragement, and pride. The trainees talk openly about what it means to be supported, to learn together, and to gain confidence through being heard.

Recorded in collaboration with 96.9 ALL FM and The Joy Ethic Show.
