Sitting into the mid morning show has been alot of fun, very hard work and amazing. I was delighted that Peter Andre chose Talk Radio Europe's "The Boland Show" for his first exclusive radio interview in Spain. Among other things Peter spoke about his family, love of cooking, music and moving on.
Boland is sitting in this month for Howard Brereton who is taking his well deserved August break. The mid morning show is being presented in the typical Maurice Boland 'style' jammed packed with guests including Esther Rantzen, Anthea Turner, Michael Winner, Gloria Hunniford, Christopher Biggins , Selina Scott and Jasper Carrot.
The show has also had some very significant interviews including an in-depth interview with Kai Chase, Michael Jackson's personal chef, who was present on the day he died. Other exclusive interviews included Giovanni Di Stefano Ronnie Biggs Lawyer who spoke on the day Biggs was released. Incidentally Di Stefeno is also famous for defending Saddam Hussein. Also Dr Jim Swire, whose daughter died in the Pan Am Lockerbie bombing. You can listen to any of these interviews on http://www.talkradioeurope.com/ on 'listen again'

Its been an extraordinary first week on TRE’s mid morning show as Boland sits in for Howard who’s taking his annual August holidays. Among the guests on the first week mid morning show where Esther Ranzen, Michael Winner Selina Scott, Lionel Blair, Anthea Turner etc TRE secured a European exclusive interview with Kai Chase Michael Jacksons personal chef who was present on the day Michael Jackson died. She told Maurice that the first hint of something amiss was when his doctor didn’t come downstairs to get the juices and granola he routinely brought the King of Pop for breakfast each morning.
In the morning, when she arrived for work, Kai said she would see the doctor coming down the steps carrying oxygen tanks. When Dr Murray didn’t come downstairs the morning of June 25, "I thought maybe Mr. Jackson is sleeping late," she said. About 12:10 Dr. Murray runs down the steps and screams, ‘Go get Prince!’ He’s screaming very loud. I run into the den where the kids are playing. Prince (Jackson’s oldest son) runs to meet Dr. Murray and from that point on you could feel the energy in the house change.
"I walked into the hall and I saw the children there. The daughter was crying. I saw paramedics running up the stairs." Kai told Maurice. At that point, she said, the small group that was gathered — the children, their nanny, a housekeeper and Chase — held hands and began to pray. As paramedics raced up to the room, Chase recalls, "We were all praying, ‘Help Mr. Jackson be O.K.’
