Kick-Ass Audio Breaks

This week’s post is all about seizing the moment.  Having heard that a lost wedding ring was found at a Jason Aldean concert, John and Tammy, KSON, San Diego went into action to find the person who belonged to the ring.  The most universal content topic for your show is relationships.  John shared the story of losing his to provide character development and a connection point.  Then, using the show, they found the guy who lost the ring and brought all the elements together.  This is terrific because it’s real life and unique radio you won’t find in a prep service.  Here are two breaks – one where they talked to the person who found the ring and the other a conversation with the guy who actually lost it.

Tell me a story.  And one with conflict.  And throw in that it has to be relatable.  In other words, there must be a fair chance listeners could see themselves in it.  Sean and Michelle, B103, Rockford, IL lead the most normal of lives.  Sean’s wife, Amy, said they would not buy a new lawnmower after theirs broke.  Instead, Amy found an old push mower on the side of the road and did the lawn with it.  Here’s a fun story, with Amy telling most of it (with commentary by Sean) which is really reflective of real life and laughter.
