We need your help to keep Now THAT’S Weird on the air - URGENT

Earlier this week I put out a plea to Now THAT’S Weird listeners as the show suddenly got landed with around £1200 worth of bills all at once.

I said that if every member of the show’s official website (around 350) gave just £10 each we would have enough to finance the show for another six months or more. So imagine my surprise when one gave a £100 donation, another a £50 donation, as well as many £10 and £5 gifts.

That said though, of the 350 or so members of the site, less than 20 actually donated.

Now I’m not criticising because every little bit helps, but we are still well short of the total we need to raise.

Every Friday night thousands of people from all over the world listen in via syndication on numerous stations and they all say how much they love the show, so I guess I had just hoped for a larger response in general. But I was gobsmacked at the people giving the larger donations - that was amazing and thank you all.

I have presented Now THAT’S Weird since Sept 2005 every Friday night for three hours and it has become so popular. There is also a Now THAT’S Weird TV show too now that airs on one of the Sky channels, so it has grown as a phenomena in its own right. But not without cost….

The new website uses a lot of bandwidth and the phones bills (three hours each week to other countries) also mounts up, so when a stack of big bills arrive together - it hits hard and poses the danger that we may have to stop doing the show altogether which would be a great shame.

The programme gets the message out to the people that mainstream radio stations won’t broadcast, things like what REALLY happened on 9/11, why there was no plane found at the Pentagon, did we really go to the moon in 1969, what is Project Serpo, do NASA have “non-terrestrial officers”? Etc etc.

So let’s hope more people hit the Paypal button on the Now THAT’S Weird website and that the programme continues to be a free broadcast for years to come.

At the time of writing this we have had almost £300 in donations but are still £900 short of our required target so PLEASE spread the word.
