TapescriptHello, everyone. Im Kate. Well, my day starts at about 10 am with a run in the park. I run for about an hour. I listen to the latest news on radio. Then I meet my team and prepare the programme. We all decide what will be on the programme.

My programme starts at 4 pm and finishes at 7:30 pm. Before I begin, I think about my listeners. I imagine that I am talking to them in person. That makes my radio show feel personal. The audience seems to like that. In the first part of the show, I interview my guests.

Then the newsreader comes in. The news takes about five minutes. After the news its the weather report, and then the phone-in. Listeners phone the station and talk to me. Thats my favourite part of the programme.
