Alex Krupa's Country Show (Weds 8:00 pm - 10:00 pm) which broadcasts on Andover Radio (Portland house, 55-57 High Street, SP10 1LP) featured a show on the Bob Harris’ Under The Apple Tree Sessions. It was first broadcast on Weds April 17, 2019. 


YouTube’s Loss Is Facebook’s Gain

Back on May 15, 2015 we compiled a chart of the favourite published videos from the Whispering Bob Broadcasting Company with artists performing for The Under The Apple Tree Sessions (UTAT; a Media Entertainment Platform).

The 236 published videos generated 273,793 views on YouTube.

In an updated chart dated May 3, 2017 there were 523 published UTAT session videos which had generated over 1-million views (1,003,463) on YouTube.

As anyone in the world with Internet access can view the YouTube videos without having to be subscribed to a Social Media network this was the most accurate way to compile the stats and popularity of the videos.

Things subsequently changed in that videos were also published on WhisperingBobTV Facebook page which generated additional 1000s of views which could be shared by the artists or fans but these figures were hard to determine were not included in the chart calculation but based purely on the number of YouTube views. 

The latest published UTAT YouTube videos (WBBCOfficial/videos   ) are receiving relatively few views here is a snapshot.

Compared to Facebook where the videos received far more views. It is therefore vital that artists share their videos across Facebook & Twitter.
