Description

Pete Snodden is a broadcaster, speaker and event host from Bangor, Northern Ireland.   He's the voice of one of the nation's most popular radio spots: The Cool FM Breakfast Show which he hosts alongside Paulo Ross and Rebecca McKinney   After being inspired by "the connection radio can provide" while homesick on a P7 trip, Pete knew from a young age that being a broadcaster was what he wanted to do.   But like most things in life, the journey to his current success was one full of challenges and obstacles along the way.   In today's episode, we chat with Pete about: His first gig with DJ Errol at his parent's friend's 40th birthday party. How he got his "foot in the door" with radio And the key lessons he's learned along the way.    Was really impressed with insight and wisdom Pete generously shared our conversation and I know you'll enjoy hearing more about the man behind the voice.   Check it out.  // To see a 'treasure trove' of all things related to Pete (including a photo) please visit https://bestofbelfast.org/stories/pete-snodden-cool-fm   Best Of Belfast is Northern Ireland's #1 Interview Podcast.
