Voice of Barbados

2 3

Originally transmitting as VOB 790 am since 1981, Voice Of Barbados has established itself as the premier News/Talk and Community outlet in the nation. News and Public Affairs form the backbone of what many consider to be the flagship station of River Road, with news bulletins regarded as trustworthy, balanced and accurate. “Today In VOB Country” with Carol “A.M” Roberts sets the tone on weekday mornings. “Down To Brass Tacks” is the nation’s most listened to call-in programme, with David Ellis, Dennis Johnson and Peter Wickham regularly listed as favourite moderators. “De Loveman Series” with Ian “De Loveman” Gill dominates radio audience share in the afternoon during the week. “Social Graces”, “Best Amateur DJ” and “Lyrical Interpretations” form concepts enthusiastically fronted by Ken “Any Other Is Counterfeit” Husbands. Musically and culturally, there is a strong local and regional flavour, while discernment is exercised in presenting international content geared towards a more mature audience.
