The show was co-hosted by American Bruce Parsons and Australian Graham GIll. Based on the charts from that week, this show aired on 6 November 1976. Shows like &#8220;What&#8217;s New&#8221; introduced me to pop\/rock artists that didn&#8217;t receive airplay in the USA. It also introduced me to other shows on Radio Nederland later on, such as &#8220;His And Hers,&#8221; &#8220;Happy Station,&#8221; and especially &#8220;Media Network.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I imagine a number of <em>SWLing Post<\/em> readers remember listening to <em>What&#8217;s New<\/em>!\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/archive.org\/download\/RadioNederlandWhatsNew6November1976\/Radio%20Nederland%20'What's%20New'%20%206%20November%201976.mp3\" target=\"_blank\">Click here to download Paul&#8217;s 1976 recording<\/a>, or simply listen via the embedded player below:<\/p>\n<audio class=\"wp-audio-shortcode\" id=\"audio-19324-1\" preload=\"none\" style=\"width: 100%;\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"audio\/mpeg\" src=\"https:\/\/archive.org\/download\/RadioNederlandWhatsNew6November1976\/Radio%20Nederland%20&#038;?_=1#039;What&#039;s%20New&#039;%20%206%20November%201976.mp3\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/archive.org\/download\/RadioNederlandWhatsNew6November1976\/Radio%20Nederland%20&#039;What&#039;s%20New&#039;%20%206%20November%201976.mp3\">https:\/\/archive.org\/download\/RadioNederlandWhatsNew6November1976\/Radio%20Nederland%20&#039;What&#039;s%20New&#039;%20%206%20November%201976.mp3<\/a><\/audio>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We are fortunate to have a number of active contributors to the Shortwave Radio Audio Archive who have dusted off old magnetic tapes and digitized them for all to enjoy.
