Ryan,

I just saw a story about Scotland trying to attract foreigners to settle down in Scotland. This sounds awfully interesting to me... but here's a stupid question.

Are there news/talk radio stations in Scotland?

I've never heard of an American broadcaster taking off in another country, but what the heck, I'm willing to at least investigate.

Thanks.

Not nearly as many as you have in the USA. Most radio stations in the UK are music stations.

I think there is only one talk station in Scotland, but I have not tuned in for five years so I have no idea if it is still running. (It went downhill after they sacked their most popular DJ)

hmmmm... this might be a more difficult move than thought. :)

Then again, maybe the time is right for a talk show in Scotland.

Perhaps you could start a petition drive in my name? :)

Music? On the radio? Bah... next thing you will tell us that they actually play music videos on MTV in the UK.
