Last Week at Capital – 1st week March 2022

We had a stellar week and thought we should get you caught up! We’re vibrant, passionate, and strive to be informative, educative and entertaining. We also had the opportunity to learn from guests who visited our shows; from sports, television to economics, there was a wealth of knowledge for our listeners and for us!   

Here’s what the Capital FM Team was up to last week:
