Hey All of Y'all (proper plural)! I hope this note finds each of you well.
I just wanted to let you know that I'm co-hosting a political show (I think the name is "The Boiling Point") on Chicago radio.
Here's the info: Thursdays 1:00-1:30 Listen Live - http://www.whpk.org/stream/
As today is our first stab, we might be lacking some of the political sound bites and music clips that would be desirable, but the show will still be engaging and thought-provoking. I'm sure by the second week, we'll iron out all those kinks and have everything organized. I'm just along for the ride just keeping the leftist host in check. Haha! -TexCon
Good luck!
Does the station reach the south suburbs?
Since it is a “dot.org” URL, I assume it is NPR affiliate. They gave you a time slot opposite the last hour of Rush?
Good luck...
The proper terminology is all y’all! :)
Best of luck!
Good luck bump!
wow this stream is cutting out about every 10 seconds for me.
I have a suggestion for a format. You go on over to DU, invite some of them onto your show as well as some freepers, and let the sparks fly.
One frustration I have with the format on Talk Radio is that the caller gets cut off by the host. I think if you tweak that format some, where the guy talking gets 30 seconds and then he’s cut off, it won’t seem so punitive when the caller doesn’t get to talk any more.
Follow the professional talk radio broadcaster’s formula for success.
1. For politics, check FR and the top blogs.
2. For comedy relief, check fark.com, it’s worth buying a totalfark membership, it’ll keep you ahead of the news cycle.
Sean Hannity has made himself a multimillionaire using this formula.
Go for it!
Brings back memories. I had a half hour radio show in college. Ethnic music.
I’ll check it out, congrats! You only have time for one bumper song, what will you pick?
