Il-bidla fil-vibe wara Terry

At 1:23:35 · chapter starts 1:18:56

The post-Terry era at Vibe FM is Frank's story of a ship without its original captain. The brand Terry built was so personalised and vision-specific that, without him, the question of what Vibe FM actually stood for became genuinely difficult to answer. Frank describes a period of attempting to maintain momentum while internally sensing that something fundamental had changed. The station had become repetitive, the calendar predictable, the energy flattening. Where Terry had pushed for constant reinvention, the structure after his departure defaulted toward safety — and safety, Frank argues, is death for a personality-radio format aimed at a younger demographic that demands surprise and spontaneity.
