Dani Stover: Is This Thing On?
13.01.2025
38 Minuten
Dani Stover is back on the show for a 3rd time and she discussed her experience with AM 640's "Let's Talk with Dani Stover," a non-live, pre-recorded radio show that curated content from across The Corus Radio Network. The show, which involved creating six to seven new segments daily, was well-received but faced challenges, including a shift in station direction and a negative climate during the pandemic. Sadly, Corus decided to end the show and part ways with Dani last month. Merry Christmas I guess. In this episode you will hear Dani express her mental shift from live radio to assembling a fully recorded show, and express her disdain for radio's reliance on text lines for audience engagement. (Can we stop this now?) She also criticized the use of AI and the negative impact of social media. Dani plans to continue writing on Substack and is considering a future podcast.

He criticizes the current state of radio, noting its lack of innovation and the disinterest of station owners. He advocates for a CRTC-led consultation to enhance radio for listeners, not record companies. Matt warns podcasters against adopting every new trend, particularly the shift to video, which can dilute the audio experience and complicate monetization. He highlights the stringent requirements for Spotify's video monetization and emphasizes the importance of maintaining audio quality.

Feed Drop: Craig Gass Appears on Terry Evans' Reluctantly
30.12.2024
1 Stunde 9 Minuten
Way back in my 1990's radio days, I got to work alongside Terry Evans. He is the same Terry Evans that wakes Edmontonians up on K97. Terry had a 5 year stint where in worked at the Bear together, we later worked against one another on competing radio stations. He loves music and has been a champion of the Edmonton music scene since he arrived there from British Columbia in the 1980's. One of the things I like about Terry is that he is unwavering. One of the things I dislike about Terry is that he is unwavering. He was unwavering about starting a podcast - until his position shifted "Reluctantly". Earlier this year, Terry launched his new show Reluctantly, and what follows is one of our famous "Feed Drops" where we feature an episode from another show we know you will enjoy. Terry recorded an episode a few months back with comedian Craig Gass, who has appeared on TV shows like King of Queens, and Sex in the City. Craig tells a few stories from his time writing jokes on the Howard Stern show which I know you will find interesting. If you like this episode, you will find value in Terry's other interviews with former Edmonton Oiler Kevin Lowe, Musicians Darby Mills from the Headpins, and Tom Cochrane from Red Rider. We featured Terry on this podcast way back in 2016... you can check that out here.
