It’s hot. No one wants to be at work. The movie “Magic Mike” has male nudity. If you target women, convince your PD to give you $50 (I know, it’s harder that it seems). Open the phones to play off the it’s hot/no one wants to work theme. Get five women to publicly say where they work and that they want to escape for an afternoon. Then, take all five to a matinee of seeing a naked Channing Tatum in an air conditioned theater as a reward.
When a spouse goes out of town for work or to visit relatives for a short while, it’s natural to fill that time getting to know your neighbors or doing things with friends you haven’t seen in a while. But once that spouse returns, you must re-devote yourself to them. This was appropriately, if sardonically addressed by Karson and Kennedy, MIX 104.1, Boston, when Karson’s wife, Lana, returned from being away for a while. Karson called his new friend, Michael, on the air to “break up” with him after their brief, early summer bromance.

Are hairy chests back in vogue? Jim and Kim, Fresh 102.7, New York City saw this survey and, targeting women, believed it was a good topic to interact about with the audience. They also decided to talk with famous hairy chest celebrity Tom Selleck to get his take. They actually had an interview already scheduled with Selleck and realized they could’ve used that time to let him sell his TV show or have fun with him around a topic more appealing to the broader female audience. They chose the latter and put together this more entertaining content break.
Dave McKay from the WQYK, Tampa morning show was talking recently about how his mother’s outgoing voicemail message made her sound like she works at a 900-number. He aired it, then added some porn music, which made it even funnier. Go grab some stereotypical porn music from your production library and put it under the outgoing messages of fellow station employees to “sex them up”. Then have listeners give you their cell numbers, call them back to capture their outgoing message, and do the same to them.
