Done with ThereIsNoRadio
i have to say i enjoy the show. I’ve been listening for passed couple months but i think you made the right move on quiting. However, i think you should still stream the show in the djnewstyle show room even though the opie room was a great test so see if people liked your show. But it is a distraction with 130 people in one room and it’s a distraction to you that you have to answer calls read text and play sound clips. i think you should just keep it in the djnewstyle show room i enjoyed the smaller crowd and when text doesnt fly by…..perhaps you should get germ to answer calls since his not the one doing all the production for the show just a recommendation.

Last night’s show was done in a popular paltalk room with around 100 people listening to the entire thing. The response was better than I could have imagined. The amount of feedback and the number of calls were overwhelming and I had a great time.
This paltalk broadcast was planned for a couple of weeks, but when Badmonkey (he runs ThereIsNoRadio) got wind of it, he cited his station policy of exclusivity and told me to stick to his website’s audio feed and chatroom. I’d have no problem with that, but the chatroom has been a ghost town since the station’s launch in October of 2005. It is a buggy flash program that requires users to create an account on ThereIsNoRadio, which is a confusing process that is punctuated by its inability to send the confirmation emails that contain the required account activation link.
After trying to reason with him, explaining that there would be a lot people there who have never heard of his station, he forbid me from doing my show on paltalk in front of potential new listeners.
I quit the station without a second thought.
I’ve been a part of that station’s lineup since it started and I have no ill-feelings towards ThereIsNoRadio, but the reason I do a show is so it can be heard by as many people as possible.
I will be broadcasting in paltalk and my episodes are recorded and added to the podcast. I will find a way to get a live stream out to the people who used to listen to me on ThereIsNoRadio.
