Currently fronting The Morning Show with local radio station East Coast FM,[1] his career has incorporated involvement with multiple pirate radio stations (including Radio Milinda, the first to be raided and prosecuted) and, later, RTE Radio 2 (where he was one of the pioneering station's original presenters).
From there he moved to the superpirates of the 1980s, before a spell with legal radio in London, England.
He is remembered for "presenting a cool and calm front".
When Radio Milinda was threatened with closure in December 1972,[3] Meehan declared on air in the week prior to the eventual raid, that they would "fight anybody who tried to close them down".
Years later, he commented on the raid: "We were fined £2, all the equipment was confiscated and it was great fun, a great adventure.
