Thom Short

Hi, my name is Thom, you can listen to me at random times, usually Thursday drivetime from 3pm-6pm and also Sundays from 2pm-4pm with my own show ‘The Ultimate Weekend Show’.

I have been on the radio since, roughly, Febuary 2011; i’m still technically a newbie, but i’m striving to be the best I can be for YOU. I’m a student at Kent University studying Drama… yep, I’m one of those people but don’t hold it against me, and I will be graduating in 2012, so I’m still here for another year! HAPPY TIMES?! …. no? … fine, whatever.

I would describe myself as a bit of an idiot and when on the air alone I start to rant about random things. Usually the rants are funny, usually down to the fact that I don’t research what I’m ranting about and make up my own facts… sigh. Whenever I get stuck for words… or even desperate, I tend to put on an accent, usually an awful one, in order to win over the crowds… this again fails miserably.

Besides acting and studying, I’m is also a DJ on the side. I have DJ’d at Alberrys, Indicate at Club Chemistry and even warmed up for the YEAH DJs at the Venue… so I’m alright, I think. I was also part of a comedy sketch group for three years, The Awkward Silence, (so I can be funny), within which I toured round most of the UK… so far Hull was my favourite city… maybe London… it’s a tie really… nah, London.
