Here at Word On Health we will be shortly be piloting a 30 minute topical
health and lifestyle programme, which we hope to make in addition to our
weekly short form  ‘Word on Health’ features and the soon to be released
‘Word on Health Doc Spot’.

Each Station could chuck a hundred quid in the Pot (£100 pa) 

.surely
that’s not going to break the Bank ?    each Station could get the show
sponsored. If it was 2 hours then it would be 4 x 25 minutes and the
sponsors would get a mention at the beginning and at the end and twice on
the breaks during the show.

BUT ALAS     there is a problem of course. The Music selection at one
Station might be different to that of another, so the safe bet might be
chunks of 8 minutes speech x 12 per 2 Hour show 

..this way if you prefer
to play Atomic Kitten after the discussion or Led Zep, then that’s up to
you.

The duration of speech can be too long 

I think it needs to be 7 x 8 as
opposed to 28 x 2      of course this is all opinions. The show would then
be a 2 hour show and not 1 hour 
.. ideal lunchtime listening.

However, it does determine where a PC can stick the show if the speech
content blocks are too long.

A Community Radio Networked Show would have to have links no longer than 8
minutes tops. If there is too much to say in one link then don’t prattle for
15 minutes, spread it over two links.

We would be in the mix with Radio 2 
.. not Radio 4

WE COULD do our own show   ie:- live’ from the CMA HQ   or it is broadcast
from the HQ after being sent to Bill, and we (The Stations) then home in on
it. Here’s where my Networked Jingles come into play    ‘’you’re tuned to
the UK Community Radio Network, for more details check your local Radio
website’’    or words to that effect.

Anyway, I’ll leave it there for now, I don’t want to end up teaching Grandma
to suck eggs   :-)

I would but it's funding, as ever, to cover the time involved in research
and production. Keep me in the loop. 

I'm a producer of syndicated shows already. One of which is a science and
technology show.

Dear All

Are there any of our Stations (there must be surely)  that do programmes
that are generic ?

Ie:- the topic might be elderly people related, or political (national)
current affairs (national)     and the programmes wouldn't sound out of
place on any of our Stations ?

I have always maintained we are missing a trick here. Almost like a couple
of Networked Shows but for US as Community Radio. They could be recorded in
chunks of half an hour so local adverts and breaks can be chucked in.

I reckon it makes sense and it is a great opportunity for someone who would
like to be a touch more National than just Local.

We all know that we get inundated with National MUSIC shows and without
being rude they are T-A-P .... they're good and professional, so it isn't a
criticism ....  I just think more of an hour / 2 hour current affairs with
COMMUNITY INCLUDED would be a belter.

Is anyone up for that ?  there must be some chomping at the bit ..... Pippa
maybe ?

Nick W
