no calls but bear in mind this was to be the first show to go live so was kinda hard to get program layout and have a side topic when no one calls in to participate it hard to carry on a show topic with no callers it would just be like talking to a wall, but i am open for suggestion,and people to set up to be guest on the show and tlk about wht ever they want to.
Uhm, now remember you ASKED for suggestions and that is what I am giving, there is no ill intent so don't get all mad and defensive.
Talk radio has to be targeted at an audience. You have to be teaching them SOMETHING or they will not be interested. You have to sponsor a bit of controversy and make some of them disagree a bit so they call to tell you that you are wrong and then someone else calls to tell them they are wrong etc. You have not done so according to the postings.
You targeted the OC crowd. Do you know more than most of them? Do you have anything to teach them? Can you get their attention and anger them enough to call you and disagree? This is what the monolog is all about, starting the blood moving either through learning or by emotional control, if you can not offer either then it is not likely that your going to grow much of an audience within your target group.
The other serious problem with it, timing. I can sign on here any time I want to and talk about whatever post interest me. With your radio show, I have to adjust my schedule to yours and do little or nothing but must be close enough to the puter to hear it. I need a pretty important reason to do that, unlike talk radio which is just a secondary noise while driving so to speak.
I personally do not think it is a wise venture at all and has the potential of creating far far more harm than good.
