    Malaga Radio Weekly Diary EP39

    🎧 Málaga Radio Weekly Diary — Episode 39 Season One Finale This week we wrap up our very first year of the Weekly Diary with something a little different… a warm, gentle look back at the moments that shaped 2025, and a soft step forward toward the new year. Carmen hosts the finale with postcards from the team — Pia checking in from the mountains as she prepares for the next season of Factor 50 in the Snow, Mitch sending a sunrise voice note from an early winter fairway, and Daniel reporting from a tiny tapas bar where he’s already gathering stories for Ice and a Slice and Out and About 2026. Carmen also takes us through Christmas in Málaga… the lights on Calle Larios, the cathedral projections, the drone shows over the port, and the winter markets by the sea. Plus her own reflections on the year — from playful “virtual drone” moments at the malagueño ferias to the deeper understanding of community she gained while researching Semana Santa. We also quietly introduce two new projects: • MálagaRadio.travel — simple, clean, and full of tours and activities to explore • Málaga Merchandise — early T-shirts now, with full collections coming in 2026 And of course, all our podcasts remain available on Radio On Demand, so if you’re in the mood for hiking, food, beach time, or local discoveries, you can dip into any episode any time. Thank you for being with us through Season One. Feliz Navidad… and we’ll see you in 2026. We are Málaga Radio.
