For a time Blair was a key figure among the listeners of BBC Radio Humberside.

Presenting

Until 7 November 2008, Blair was the presenter of "Soapbox", a regular weekday phone-in programme on BBC Radio Humberside.[1] This slot was taken over by Peter Levy, however a new format has been introduced.

Until October 2019 Jacobs was the presenter of the Sunday morning religious strand and gardening programme, "The Great Outdoors" along with local expert Doug Stewart,[2] but was removed from the show in a surprise move by the BBC. His last show was 20 October 2019 with Jacobs commenting that 'A decision had been made to "revamp" the programme and that he "wasn't part of it".'[3]
