Newstalk goes “quasi-national”

Newstalk 106 has gone "quasi-national" today – kinda like a radio version of Shaws, almost nationwide. Not being in Ireland, I can't hear it, and when I have the chance to listen to online streaming at this hour, Ray Darcy on Today FM is still my choice!
I listened to Sean Moncreif on Newstalk yesterday, and on the one hand, I think, "oh my god how do they hope to make this nationally relevant", but on the other hand, it is so phone-in based, it might just work. Good luck to them either way!
