I'm proud to announce that the US-based parent show of my travel radio show, 'Around the World' has been nominated for the 'best of travel and dining in radio' award in the 2008 Irhas International Restaurant & Hotel Awards.
The show, which originates out of the studios of KZSB AM 1290 in Santa Barbara (California) will be competing for the coveted 'gong' with co-nominees The Food Programme (BBC Radio 4, United Kingdom); The Travel Show With Arthur Frommer (WOR 710 HD New York, United States) and Chef's Challenge (702 ABC Sydney, Australia).
For many years I have hosted and produced the Australian spin-off of the US show, featuring locally produced segments as well as grabs from the US show. I'm also the Aussie correspondent for the nominated US show, so have a close connection with the program. Thus we will keep our fingers crossed on the awards night, November 16, at the home of the 'Golden Globes', the Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills. The star-studded event will be hosted by Mark DeCarlo from 'Taste of America' on the Travel Channel.
We will keep you posted on the outcome of the awards. Meanwhile, my congratulations on being nominated to the US team, led by amiable co-hosts Arthur von Wiesenberger and Richard Mineards.
