Ideas for my radio show please
Along with one of my friends, I've just been given a radio show on my student radio station. We go out on the air at 9 pm on Wednesday.
All this is geat but, I'm quite short of ideas for things to talk about in the links(talky bit in between songs). Any ideas?
I'll try and do an advice segment but that entirely relies on people texting or emailing questions. I'll also talk a bit about Amnesty International's 'protect the Human' week etc. we'll probably be able to talk for a bit about the various uni societies and teams we're involved in and play a few tracks for our fellow team members. We're also supposed to plug some of the union events which I don't really mind doing as they are almost always pretty good.
Our show is called "Random Weirdo's" so we can talk about almost anything so long as that won't offend people.
Please give me ideas and I'll play your track requests. The show will be available for non-locals at www.ramair.co.uk from 9-10 pm gmt.
Thanks guys.

Maybe give some free advice about: Random Weirdos?
OK, congratulations to you and your friend. Here is a suggestion. This website is a journalism website for and about and by kids, teenagers. Maybe you will find something interesting to talk about on it.

An idea I once had for a podcast [iPod broadcast] would actually fit this situation. See, my idea was to...survey or question girls on certain topics, such as why they do or say certain things. I would want to choose a question that guys are usually curious about, then ask several, and it should be more than 6, different girls about it, and get their responce back then try and form some sort of hypothesis.
If you have the time to do that, or e-mail people to get responces, I think that would be a good idea to talk about for a few minutes because it will interest the guys because really, just about all of us are clue-less, so we would want to know things like: why do girls always walk around in pairs or groups; why are there so many different sizes and types of bags, and which are better; what should we do when you feel upset or hurt, etc. Stuff like that. I think it might also interest other girls because that would give them a chance to hear things from different perspectives and either agree or disagree. You could even have people call in or e-mail to give feedback on what other people said.
If that doesn't work...NPR, National Public Radio, has a daily segment called 'Story of the Day'. If you'd like, you could either find it online, or use iTunes, and under Podcasts, find it there. I'm not sure what its called, but there is also a Podcast which broadcasts a segment on the topic 'this day in history'. That is usually an interesting one. There are many other podcasts available which you may even want to talk about or even present, like repeat what is said [with giving credit to them of course].
Anyways, hope that helped and good luck.

Why don't you do what John Tesh does on his radio show? During every link he talks about answers to different surveys, like for example, one day he said to the guys, "what is the best way to pick up a woman at the gym"? And then the audience has to wait for the answer until after the next song is over.
He's had many interesting topics including how to a great job if you are a university student, and how to score with the opposite sez, and stuff about losing weight.
