Notes & Links

KV Turley w/ Archangel Radio in Alabama

QUESTION: How do you continue to stay on air after all these years?

ANSWER: Entertain, Entertain and Entertain

• I came one host after Sean Hannity at that radio station.
• You can’t see the hand movements and eye squinting on radio.
• You can’t use any of those gimmicks so to speak w/ radio.
• What are basic rules you pass onto people interested in basic radio.
• Assume your audience knows NOTHING.
• You assume this so you can adequately inform them.
• Why do I use the RE 20 and will never use anything else?
• Learn mic technic – 

What is your take on the industry today?

• If you have 50% of your audience hate it and 50% love it, you have done your job.
• I am willing to state something and not change my mind on it.
• You can’t invent personality – that is intangible. I can’t teach personality.
• If you play a character that character might get old.
• The Bob and Sherry Show – their key to survival is no matter who buys the station they adapt.
• The Beatles Let It Be album – there is a quote on there that they wanted to bring the atmosphere of a live recording to a record b/c there was nothing like the LIVE versions.
• Kinda like Broadway vs Movies
• You can’t teach it, tenacity. 
• You can’t teach that either, the desire and commitment to do it right, to get it right to have your audience love your show.
• Back in the day they picked a vocation and stuck with it for life.
• It requires a commitment to your craft.
• We know this in the Catholic realm as a VOCATION.
• You dig in through good times and bad times.
