Currently syndicated on 22 radio and Internet stations across four countries including the United States, Spain, Gambia and the United Kingdom, the Sound Chat Radio talk program is centred on preserving sound system culture and keeping the Caribbean diaspora abreast of the social and entertainment happenings in Jamaica. Unique content Through specialised programmes which highlight the intricate role that sound systems have played in music, Sound Chat preserves the sound system culture. In addition to its unique content, Sound Chat also thrives in popularity because of its no-nonsense approach to attacking social issues and topics that the average show does not want to address. An overwhelming number of sound systems and artistes tune in to Sound Chat weekly, among fans and music lovers, to soak in the coverage and topics. "We bring the show to Jamaica for the last two weeks of every year so that our listeners can feel the holiday energy and vibe from Jamaica ... . It also gives listeners a rare opportunity to hear artistes, who may not be able to travel outside of Jamaica," said Bourne. Just three years old, the Sound Chat Radio talk programme has become one of the industry's leading shows of its kind, attracting thousands of world-wide listeners weekly. The show has also become a home to high-profile radio clashes with some of the biggest and best sounds in the arena.
