TSSJimmyCoN will become famous soon enough
Default Need an opinion....

TSS Radio is doing a weekly podcast and we would like to mention SiriusXM news blogs such as DRC. What would you guys suggest we talk about in the first episode? Keep in mind this is just an experimental thing and we're really just trying to do something to add to the help/interest of Sirius XM users. Any comments/ideas would be awesome

I would think the financials would be a good place to start. Its what seems to be on everybody's mind right now.

If you want to stick to programming you could engage in a discussion about how Sirius XM seems to have little or no respect for The Bridge.

Or how Sirius could drop all the JUNK PORN ADS on Stern and just promote THEIR OWN CONTENT ON THE OTHER 160+ CHANNELS THAT NO ONE KNOWS ABOUT???????

I might actually listen to other channels if I knew they existed and seeing how 50% of sirius customers listen to Stern it only makes sense!

maybe consolidating stations? Quantity VS Quality? Are "branded personalties" worth the money? Equipment quality? Sirius' 5year plan focus?

A short reoccurring "Tech Tip" segment would be helpful. Especially to those that don't visit this forum. You know, antenna basics, keeping your SL2 healthy, formatting memory cards, play lists, etc.

I think you could do a whole show on how to baby your SL2 to keep it working. Another show on antenna placement for Sirius and XM.

Maybe a show on the different features of the currently available Sirius & XM radios. Sort of a home shopping 1/2 hour for satrads.

OK.... Brainstorming .......

Equipment Rumor Mill... What may be hitting your shelves in the near future.

Feature on setting up your radio in your home. I think way too many people miss out on so much by only listening in the car. Talk about antenna placement / echo repeater vs. FM transmitter, boomboxes, etc....

Walk the dog... Explore a channel in depth. Comment on strengths and weaknesses. Tell the audience who to contact to request changes, or how to request a song on this channel.

Promo codes - Hide a coupon code somewhere in the show. It would entice people to listen, plus those the catch the code can use it for whatever... 10%, free shipping... etc...

Have your audience register for a drawing. Then you accumulate a list of emails to market too, meanwhile you announce a winning email address and what the prize is and that person has so many days to claim it.

Accept Q&A emails and choose a few to be featured.

Radio reviews.. Put it to the test. What are the pros and cons of this model? Display.. Visibility.. FM strength.. Features.. etc...

Sirius Vs. XM Which is best for you? Is there really a difference anymore?

Stiletto - Way more than a radio, way more than an ipod, but don't let the secret get out or else people will buy them.
