Show notes
There are few true ‘bibles’ of radio broadcasting craft. In this Earshot podcast, David Lloyd explains how he identified the need for a different kind of radio book and why he wanted to be the one to write it.
He introduces a thoughtful approach to hooking and teasing, prioritises positive writing over fussy production and explains how radio promotions producers can make their work more effective with a focus on listener benefits.
How to make great radio – David LLoyd
Colin Kelly’s with us too – he has just launched a children’s radio project for schools in Scotland. Hear the results of Scottish Schools Radio in the show, including one schoolgirl who gives Steve Wright a run for his money with her take on Factoids.
And because it’s Christmas enjoy a couple of remarkable radio ads from the USA and Ireland.
If you’d like to get in touch or share your production just email us. We love to share great audio from around the world – any station – any format, especially if it has an interesting story behind it.
Buy David’s book
Buy How to Make Great Radio from Amazon. Proceeds go to the Radio Academy.
