FAT HOGS BAY, Tortola, VI– After a long absence on air, Tola Radio VI 100.5 FM Owner and Da Morning Braff Show host Floyd Burnett aka ‘Heritage’ returned to the show on Monday, June 17, 2024, much to the delight of his many listeners, who expressed their appreciation at seeing the show and the host back on air.

Mr Burnett said after working through Christmas, and amidst technical issues at the station, he decided to take a break.

"I work for three months, I take a month off... give me a chance to take a break, grow, transition seasons where [in] radio you deal with four quarters of business," he said.

Mr Burnett said the show has been through many changes over the years, including co-hosts such as the late Julio S. Henry, Dameon Percival and others including Rosemary L. Rosan aka 'Cindy'. Rosan has since broken away to form her own morning radio show on a competing station. 

"Yes, I name host, but I also name owner and manager and at the end of the day when there's technical problems, matching failures all of that show up on my plate... my own job is not to just show up and talk," he added.

New co-hosts

On today’s episode of the show, Mr Burnett also introduced Lawrence A. Kirton-Wheatley aka ‘Bunchie’ as a co-host of the show, along with Paul A. Hewlett aka 'Paul on the Ball'.

Mr Burnett said the purpose of the radio station is to spread VI music to the world and to provide a platform for the community to share opinions and ideas.

The return show received more than 5,600 views and close to 200 comments.

    The host is fake. Ground Lizard. The buy out money taking too long...As hot headed and anti male as Cindy is she is more real than them..Fake people are always liked over the real ones...Cindy is more knowledgeable on the Issues than them. If Cindy will just calm down and be fair,. Hon L. Smith is a failure in many ways bug Cindy conveniently blind and deaf when comes to her. Thats an Issue with most of her listeners..

    Ok! So now his station is in competition with ZROD. NEVER Bro! You in competition with yourself. Can't you see that different radio stations brings different vibes and audiences. That's the thing with some of us Virgin Islanders. We just can't celebrate and appreciate others for progress, but personally try and depreciate another's success. Some of us pretend to tolerate instead of joining to celebrate.

    I listen to tola radio this morning it's so fair and balance and not no personal agenda bashing our people and wishing bad for our leaders.
