For me, the one new station recently which is interesting to take note of is Boom Radio - they were about to have Paul O'Grady as their key presenter on there before he sadly passed away
Boom Radio is unique, that it doesn't have a studio base, all of their shows are produced from their presenters homes, just when a lot of radio was done during lockdown.
I have listened to a tiny bit of Boom Radio, and it sounds to me the station that many older listeners want Radio 2 to be now in 2023. It's a bit like a time machine of a station, with a comforting sound for the over 50s who seem to be ignored by radio a lot these days - considering the over 50s are the ones who consume more radio, and are likely to be a lot loyal and stick around, Boom Radio has benefited from it.
