Beelen says that he was busy with preparations for his show and podcast until late in the evening, and that he also went to the NOS program With a view to tomorrow wanted to listen. “So I went to sleep much too late.”
Beelen was also absent last week on the night from Thursday to Friday because he had overslept. When he did not show up last night, Van Velthuysen and Rosendahl already knew what time it was, although they were also worried.
They called their colleague several times, but the phone was off. Listeners were also critical. Beelen finds it annoying that the image has now arisen that he does not consider his night show important. “Anyone who knows me knows that I wanted this time because I think it is so beautiful.”
Conversation with the boss
The bosses of BNNVARA are probably not happy with the absent disc jockey, but in a written statement are flat.
“Giel’s phone already left him last week, and it broke down completely last night. As a result, he regrets not being able to present his show, which we find very annoying for his listeners. Of course BNNVARA will talk about this with Giel today, but We will not make any further announcements about the content of this, “the broadcaster writes.
The channel manager of NPO Radio 2 had already announced that there had been contact with the DJ and that everything was fine with him. “That’s the most important thing to us.”
Beelen has promised it will never happen again. It seems wise to buy an alarm clock.
