Midwest Radio has done that and lots more.
When it comes to the west of Ireland the station ploughs itself knee-deep into the happenings of politics, current affairs, sports and the arts. Midwest Radio likes to set the agenda and its ability to do so has made it part and parcel of people's lives in the country.

Further a field the station has strong links with emigrant associations in every part of the world. Over the past 15 years the station regularly broadcasts programmes from all corners of the globe where men and women have made their homes away from the "auld sod". Musically the station has put special emphises on promoting Irish talent both locally and nationally. Its exposure to the airwaves of Irish artists has unearthed a vast array of talent in country, ballads, folk, traditional and contempary.
The homely atmosphere of the station breaks the mould of traditional radio stations. At Midwest radio listeners are friends and a cead míle failte awaits everyone. The station wears its heart on its sleeve and that is why people say nobody does it quite like Midwest radio.
