Callum: Hi, Callum Robertson. Helen: Hello Callum. Helen Francis, from The Nation.
Callum: Hi. How are you? Thanks for the email.
Helen: I’m fine. Thanks for agreeing to do the interview. As I mentioned in the email, it’s pretty simple really. Just a few questions about the media. You can say as much or as little as you like.
Callum: Fine, go ahead.
Helen: OK… first question: which newspapers do you read?
Callum: I don’t buy a newspaper every day because I don’t really have time to read one. I cycle to work every day and it’s a bit difficult to read a newspaper while you’re cycling. If I travel by train, I get one of the free newspapers, like the Metro that we have here in London. But when I get to work we have the daily papers here, so at lunchtime, I read The Guardian or I have a look at one of the tabloids.
Helen: What about magazines?
Callum: I subscribe to a computer magazine, Mac World, because I have a Mac at home and I like to keep up with what’s going on with Macs. And at work I look at some of the trade magazines and some other computer and Internet magazines, but apart from that I don’t spend a lot of time with magazines.
Helen: Uh-huh. What do you watch on TV?
Callum: I watch a great deal of television. I probably watch too much television. I like documentaries and comedies. I like American drama series like The Sopranos and ER and things like that. But I do have square eyes, I think.
Helen: Do you ever listen to the radio, apart from the programmes you make?
Callum: I listen to the radio a lot. I think it’s a great medium. When I’m cooking in the kitchen, I always have the radio on. When I’m in the bath, I have the radio on and when I go to sleep at night, I have the radio on. And it’s actually on throughout the night, and when I wake up in the morning I have the radio on. It’s mainly talk radio: news station BBC Five Live is the station I tend to listen to, that or Radio 4, another BBC station. I don’t listen to very much music on the radio, but I love the radio – it’s great.
