In My Day
6PM-11:59PM Sat
It’s all about the memories and music every Saturday night!
Join Roman Travers as we explore what life was like back in your heyday. The mystery of callers and the magic of music from the 70s, 80s and 90s has captured the heart of listeners from all generations, right across New Zealand. Listen from 6pm-12pm each Saturday to rediscover what Stayin’ Alive was like back when we were all getting Physical, and Livin’ on a Prayer.
Roman graduated from The New Zealand Radio Training School in Wellington in 1995 and set off on a tour of New Zealand working for Radio New Zealand on a number of stations, before their commercial arm became The Radio Network. Having hosted breakfast and drive shows, Roman also branched out into TV where he hosted New Zealand’s first ever reality TV show: ‘The $20 Challenge London’.
Roman has two adult daughters, a Land Rover Defender and a love of spontaneous road trips around our gorgeous country. He is also an ambassador with Big Buddy New Zealand and has been a mentor with the organisation since 2016.
