In commemoration of World Radio Day, ACME Talks was joined by Samuel Gummah Nabaasa, Executive Director of Uganda Radio Network, to talk all things radio. Sam, a radio man to the core, has seen the evolution, transformation and stagnation of radio broadcasting in Uganda, thanks to his decades of experience in content production and management in various radio-related organisations. In this episode, he shares his thoughts on the successes, failures and opportunities for growth for radio broadcasting in the country.
