This week I'm joined by Leo Trimming of The Progressive Aspect who takes a look back at 2023's album 'Planetary Overload Part 2 – Hope' by United Progressive Fraternity, and you can test your knowledge of the world of prog, old and new in our fun quickfire quiz as we ask “How Proggy Are You?!”, and of course, two hours of superb melodic and symphonic progressive rock.

You can hear The Prog Mill on Progzilla Radio at these times every week (www.progzilla.com/listen - via the tune in and other internet radio apps and platforms – or ask your smart speaker to “Play Radio Progzilla on Tune-In”)

Shaun Geraghty

Shaun has been a radio presenter since 1982, starting in pirate radio broadcasting across Europe from an aerial strung between trees in the forests of Staffordshire. Soon after, he became a regular presenter and member of the management team at Hospital Radio Stafford, staying there for 32 years and receiving long service awards. Shaun also worked extensively in local community radio in Staffordshire on several stations including Stafford FM, Stone FM, Chase FM and Smart Radio. When Stafford Radio, an online community radio station started broadcasting from a 220 year old windmill in 2011, Shaun began presenting 'The Prog Mill' (the name inspired by the station's unique base). Stafford Radio became Windmill Radio before closing in 2016, when 'The Prog Mill' became part of Progzilla Radio. The Prog Mill leans towards the melodic and symphonic side of progressive rock, and includes regular album reviews from our friends at The Progressive Aspect, CD Giveaways, and a regular fun quickfire quiz.
