Andy Bush began his DJ journey somewhat accidentally, without any prior interest in radio. After university, he moved to Bristol to play in a band and took on a day job at BT to pay the bills. One day, during his lunch break, he stumbled upon a careers fair in Clifton where they were advertising for Traffic News readers. Despite not being a driver, he saw it as a unique opportunity and recorded a demo on a cassette tape. Surprisingly, he got the job and this marked his start in radio, around the year 2000. Working for a company called Traffic Link in Bristol's Evening Post building, Andy had the chance to dial into various shows throughout the day. This experience provided him with valuable knowledge and skills in radio, particularly in understanding the direction of a piece and supporting the presenter, as opposed to going off track. He also learned the importance of concise delivery and being mindful of time constraints. Thus, Andy's radio career began unexpectedly, but it set him on an adventurous path in the world of broadcasting. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
