PAUL VAN DAM

Paul van Dam grew up in the days when radio was still made from the sea. His favorite British sea station was Swinging Radio England. From an early age he thought radio, as it was made in Hilversum and Brussels, was corny. There so, to his father's dismay, was not listened to. Every week the printed copy of the Veronica Top 40 was picked up at the local record store. Partly because of this, an enormous knowledge of music and vinyl was accumulated.

For many years Paul managed a cable newspaper (L.O.O.S Kabelkrant in Oud-Gastel). He served on various boards in the field of media and sports; among other things, Paul was chairman of the Regional Programming Council South-East Flevoland.

After his baptism of fire as a side-kick in 2004 at the now defunct Radio 192, he wanted more. He made programs for SplashFM (Almere), made "Paul in the 90's" for Terneuzen FM for many years and continued that program on Sunday nights at Radio Seabreeze. From Seabreeze Paul went to Monique and now at KL85.net.

Paul receives support from his producer, Jessy Winters, who continues to act as producer and his advisor. Jessy also occasionally appears as a sidekick on his programs.
