I was dancing in the Soul Clubs during the 60's, DJ'ing in the Disco's during the 70's, & on radio during the 90's and the noughties... and I still am!!
I just can't remember any of it anymore!

You may or may not have noticed the change in
The Ghostly Smell Of Rice Pudding!
The first chapter was published on August 30, 2017, and was the opening chapter of my life story. It has evolved over the years and developed into a humorous podcast series of shorts, each less than 10 minutes in length. I aim to produce a new short every fortnight or so!
Oh yes, I was recently diagnosed with Alzheimer's!
That's not stopping me, I don't give up that easy. Alzheimer’s disease is a physical illness which damages a person’s brain. This eventually causes dementia, affecting memory and thinking.
Alzheimer’s disease is the most common cause of dementia.

About... Keith Blease-Bourne​
I have done many things over my life, you can hear about most of it here in 'The Ghostly Smell of Rice Pudding'.
I'm still alive, so still a work in progress!
As far as radio is concerned, I have a pretty good pedigree. I started “radio” when I was about 10 years old with a Grundig TK14 1/4 inch reel to reel tape recorder and a Decca record player in my bedroom... with one record... and the audience was a cat!!
When I was around 13, I was DJ-ing at a Community Hall’s Beat Night. By the time I was 16 I was doing my thing in Workingmen’s Clubs and the like. I'm tall, they thought I was older!
By the mid seventies that's the decade not my age I was DJ-ing in one of THE Top Cabaret Nightclub in The UK... JOLLEES. The largest capacity cabaret venue in the UK during the 1970s.
Despite a life-long passion to work in radio, it was the mid 1990’s before I fulfilled my ambition by becoming a freelance producer/presenter with the BBC. I worked, mainly, with BBC Local Radio, occasionally BBC Radio 4, and ALMOST on TV... but that's another story that's available on 'The Ghostly Smell of Rice Pudding' .
​​After a break from radio I returned with more of a music bias on many local, and on-line, radio stations around the world, including a station that I, along with a great team of volunteers, set-up and managed... Beartown Radio.
I now concentrate on my podcast, 'The Ghostly Smell of Rice Pudding'. Most of my time is spent researching and screaming obscenities at my computer, followed by scripting, recording, and responding to emails... quite often nice ones!
