It really is hard to believe all Peni Whelan, Brum Community Media and Hope Radio have accomplished in a year, I mean the VR Room launching (or launched ***please edit accordingly***). I really enjoy being able to connect with music and with our listeners each week and share great new music...I also love how interactive and eclectic our show has become."
