Down Tools with Trev & Rich makes drive time debut

Posted: Friday, February 3rd, 2023

Fix Radio, the Builders Station, has signed up Trevor Marshall and Richard Smith for its drive time show. Down Tools with Trev & Rich will start from 30th January from 4-to-7pm, offering a blend of banging tunes, irreverent humour, daft games, and completely bias sports commentary.

It's 100% nonsense guaranteed and perfect listening when the working day is done, the tools are in the back of the van and you’re heading home. We don’t guarantee accurate traffic reports, but we do promise to entertain you.

“It’s great to have Trev and Rich on our late afternoon drive slot,” said Sean Coleman, head of station, Fix Radio.

“We’ve loved having Down Tools on at the weekend – and now they’re doing even less work during the week as well. Everyone at Fix is looking forward to seeing what they come up with to entertain our audience of tradespeople,” he added

The drive time show will continue to be sponsored by specialist trades insurer, Markel Direct.

Rob Rees, divisional director at Markel Direct, said “We're looking forward to continuing our strategic partnership with Fix Radio, and working with Trev and Rich on Down Tools, as they create a fun and engaging show to entertain tradespeople on their way home.”

Trev & Rich have been hosting a weekend show with Fix Radio since the station went national in May 2022. During that time, they’ve introduced the fake news game, played the word of the week (lollygagging anyone?), debated their favourite service stations and finished themselves off.

Before joining Fix Radio, Trev had worked as a breakfast show host with GWR Group and then as Jack FM breakfast show host for 15 years.

Co-host Rich also worked at Jack FM on the Morning Glory Breakfast Show with Trev, before working on several other projects on the Jack network.
