Profile
Programme
Name: Independent Talk
Programme
Host: Ronald 'Ronnie' Thwaites
Programme
Description: This Morning Talk Show Programme has the distinction
of providing its listeners with a wide range of information, ranging
from farming to in-depth analysis of current events, as they start
their day. Listeners have described the programme as one of 'the
most information-oriented' on radio. It comes as no surprise then,
that the programme has copped awards from numerous organizations
such as Blue Cross of Jamaica, Jamaica Teachers' Association and
the Office of Disaster Preparedness and Emergency Management for
its informative programmes.
Independent Talk gives its listeners a good start for the day with
'Word for the Day', a devotional feature at 5:30 am, followed by
a review of the island's two major newspapers. Other programme features
include Today's Money, Farm Talk, The University of the West Indies
in the 21st Century, Honouring Kindness, and A Jamaican Story. There
are also current affair segments such as Inside Story and The People's
Agenda, during which there is in-depth discussion of both local
and international current events. Listeners are also able to voice
their opinions during the programme, during a call-in segment called
'The Voice of the People'. The programme ends at 10:00am.
 About
the Host: 'Ronnie'
Thwaites first entered the media as a Radio Talk Show Host in
1976, as host of the programme 'Public Eye', on the now defunct
JBC radio station. He is an attorney-at-law, farmer, minister of
religion and a politician, all of which have brought a unique dimension
to his style of hosting Independent Talk. Thwaites has earned a
reputation for his diplomatic approach to interviews, while eliciting
invaluable information from his guests.
