Thanks ^^<br><br>I'm certainly hoping to get some lively debate with different people going on. Indeed - if anyone is interested in being part of the show, please let me know. One thing I noticed about LUGradio (a good example as when I started listening to LUGradio I hardly knew anything about Linux) is that the show; with it's lively debate and humour, was interesting enough to listen to - even when you didn't *really* know exactly what they were talking about - indeed in later years I actually introduced to show to a fellow art student while I attended sixth form, who found it relatively entertaining despite not caring the slightest for the subject matter.<br>
<br>Hm.. Hopefully we'll have some more direction and ideas after the meet this Tuesday :)<br><br><br>Chris Hayes<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Feb 18, 2009 at 6:46 PM, Shelagh Dunning <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:s.dunning@ntlworld.com">s.dunning@ntlworld.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

"Boundary Sound" without adding "the new 102.6fm" on the front ;)<br>
<br>
On the programme content front I think you'd be wise to build up to the<br>
geek bit as you were thinking, the average listener is inclined to tune<br>
out / off if something goes way over their head, but get them interested<br>
and involved and they'll listen even at the point where it starts going<br>
over their heads. Half your problem will be keeping your geeky listeners<br>
who've tuned in especially engaged through the breaking in process for<br>
the average listener. Are you thinking of having different people in to<br>
discuss things each time? Much easier than talking to yourself about a<br>
subject, and more engaging for those who are listening.<br>
