I’m a bit of a nerd for space, science and video games! When I’m not presenting, I’m either podcasting, rewatching the same TV shows, or hanging out at local toy fairs.

About

Get to know Fiona Bartholomaeus

If you’ve listened to On The Record you’ll know I’m a big nerd for space, science and video games, and it’s exciting that I get to bring those passions to the show every week.

I love being able to present on air, I get to speak to such a wide variety of people about so many different topics. I love being able to ask why and dive into the how, tackling difficult topics and shine a light on the amazing work individuals and groups do in the community. I feel very lucky that I get to walk away every week with new facts and information.

When I’m not speaking to amazing people on air, I’m checking out nerdy toy fairs, developing a video game with friends, rewatching the same couple of sci-fi shows, doing puzzles, and making a variety of podcasts including a video game podcast called Sifter where we speak to indie developers.

RTRFM is such a great place to be at, from the volunteers and staff at the station, to all the people that walk in the door. Every day I’m learning something new!

How did you become involved in the station?

I found my way to RTRFM through a university placement. I started off working as an assistant producer for On The Record (or The Mag as it was called at the time!), where I found my feet in journalism and learnt what it takes to create content for radio. I never left after that! Now I’m in the lucky position of being able to present every Wednesday, sharing interesting (and sometimes weird) topics to our listeners.

Tell us about your most memorable gig, either attending or playing at?

I don’t think this counts as a gig but I love musicals and one that’s stuck with me was the Aladdin Broadway show. The stage production was incredible, and seeing characters and scenes that I grew up with come to life right in front of me is something I won’t forget.

What is your favourite show (other than your own) on RTRFM?

It’s a hard to pick but I do love the interviews and segments on Breakfast with Pam, and the chill, electric sounds of Ambient Zone.

Love music?

Love RTRFM.
