This year, we're celebrating the 40th anniversary of SBS Radio.

What began in 1975 as a three month experiment with eight languages is now a national multimedia broadcaster, with radio going out in 74 languages, over the airwaves and online. 

To mark the anniversary, throughout 2015, we've been meeting some of the people who have made SBS Radio what it is today. 

In this instalment, we meet some of those behind the SBS Pashto program.
