In their latest episode, the Out of Towners had the pleasure of hosting Dave Bushnell, the founder and managing director of Hull What’s On, in the 107FM studio. The episode dives into Dave’s experiences as a Mancunian in Hull, his remarkable contributions to the city’s cultural scene, and several of his unique observations of the city.
Dave, who migrated from Manchester to Hull in the mid-Noughties, began his journey in the city by working various jobs, including a role in a call centre. Fueled by a desire to build Hull’s reputation and keep the locals informed about events in their hometown, he founded Hull What’s On.

The majority of this episode centres around Dave’s distinctive take on Hull’s perception, particularly how a perceived low opinion of Hull amongst locals might be holding the city back.
