‘make the show that you would want to listen to. If it fails then so be it but don’t play anything merely because you think the audience would like it.’
I’m sympathetic to that approach too. So why not grab a mic and start doing some test recordings now?
Almamater – So why go into such detail about what you are doing on this forum? You have made your life my business through discussing it here. What you don’t like is my identifying it as ‘individualistic’ rather than socialist. Am I mistaken?
DJP – I have a recording of one of my early shows and would like to share it with you – if you’re interested how can this be done? As for grabbing a mic now there’s nothing I would like to do more but it looks like I’ll be in hospital again very soon (subjected to hospital radio, groan) as my health is rubbish. Who knows if I’ll regain the strength to hit the airwaves once more – my public await with bated breath.
Wez – are you the person listed as the contact for Cambridge? If so I’ll email you and you could send me it to me via DropBox or similar.
DJP -Yep, that’s me. I don’t know if you’ve read my account of my adventures on radio: https://www.worldsocialism.org/spgb/socialist-standard/2012/2010s/no-1299-november-2012/fyah-inna-babylon-marxist-media/

I like Adorno’s commentary on popular music and politics, but perhaps he was overegging it:
