24/6 station “sometimes gets funny, sometimes gets intense, but never gets stuffy”
Jerusalem, Israel, Nov. 5, 2009: The Anglo-Israeli Rusty Mike Internet radio station, launched just before Passover, has already reached nearly 33,000 downloads, it was announced today.
This Jerusalem-based station offers live and podcasted shows, featuring subjects that have attracted a dedicated following in Anglo-Israeli community and the general Jewish community worldwide. Topics include Israeli scene, social action, legal advice, psychotherapy, job advice, cooking and comedy.
“Rusty Mike Radio steps away from the usual Jewish radio format, and that seems to suit our listenership,” says station owner Adam Mallerman. “Perhaps that’s because we keep our shows open to opinions and input, with people calling in and offering their take on a wide range of issues affecting Israel and Jews worldwide. It sometimes gets funny, it sometimes gets intense, but it never gets stuffy!”
Show hosts and topics include:
- Adam Mallerman’s outrageous commentary on “Adam in the Morning”
- Richard Freedman’s offbeat take on Israeli society
- Nettie Feldman’s “never go hungry for honest chat” talk on Afternoon Shmooze
- Mimi Borowich’s local talent scoops

I listened for a while this afternoon (which was early morning in Israel) and it was fun – eclectic mix of music ranging from Blue Fringe (big hit in our house) to Jonas Brothers and a wide variety of others. Also got local news and traffic. And the DJ talked about the Alyn riders coming into Jerusalem, and I thought of the Secors! Thoroughly enjoyed it.
