Presenter Bio – Michael Costello
Michael Costello lived in Melbourne most of his life, and had a 30 year involvement in Community Television, working in different crew roles , producing, and in later years, got the courage to present his own programs. Around 4 years ago, he moved to Echuca, and has recently joined ONE FM Shepparton as a trainee presenter/producer. The move into radio is certainly a change from the television work, but Michael is looking forward to working in a new medium. Michael has had an interest in Shepparton for a long time, and several years ago tried to get a test Community TV station going in town. “Unfortunately government policy put a stop to that, but it is good to serve the town in a new way”
Michael currently records episodes of “River Allsorts”, a one hour show of General Music and occasional interviews. The format is “anything, with a few surprises”!
“River Allsorts”
“River Allsorts” is a program hosted by Michael Costello, where the format is “anything, with a few surprises”! The format at the moment is mainly 80s music, with a few tracks from earlier and later years. “I have a high level of Australian music content in the show, but have a bit of music from all over as well. “ We will also have interviews on the show from time to time. We hope you enjoy the program, and you can leave feedback for the show at our website – riverallsorts.net
