Newstalk Nation

Are you tired of being told what you think without anyone bothering to ask?

We want to recruit loyal listeners to form the Newstalk Nation. We'll email you to ask you your views on what matters to you. It might be about elections, schools, sport, economy or what brings a smile to your face. It's your voice, your station, your nation. It's your chance to be heard.
