Mark Flanagan hosts a program called The R&B Experience out of Connect FM in Sydney’s Southwest. The show started way back in 1993, with some hiatuses, with the newest iteration, playing real rhythm & blues music from Australia & around the world, broadcasting to far away place of the world too.

One such place is Scotland through online station Paisleyradio.com.

The Prestige Scotland Awards, similar to the ACRAs, cover all of Scotland, with over 360 stations involved. 17 Presenters were nominated for Radio Personality Of The Year.

The winner? Mark Flanagan!

“Yes somehow a local radio announcer based at Connect FM in Sydney’s Southwest has taken out a top gong for broadcasting in Scotland!! To say I was shocked, surprised & humbled would be the least.”
