Will Faulkner

Will Faulkner is the presenter of Midlands Today. Will is the youngest person to front a flagship programme on Irish radio and also serves as the Director of Programming at Midlands 103. He holds a first class honours degree in Journalism and Media Communications and has worked for various broadcasters including CKR FM, Independent Network News, 98FM and KCLR 96FM.

But he has skeletons in his closet.

Have you ever seen him dance to Walk of Life by Dire Straits?! You don't want to!! Will says the success of the Midlands Today programme relies on ordinary people getting involved. "If you're sitting there and shouting at the radio, why not come on the air and shout at me instead. Get involved! If I'm not asking the questions you want me to ask, call the station or send me a text and I'll ask the question you want. Better yet, come on the air and ask it yourself!"
