Shot In The Dark: Chronicles of NARN

January 20, 2006

Chronicles of NARN

If you caught the Northern Alliance Radio Network last week, you noticed a change or two. The show expanded to four hours - and two concepts.

For the first two hours, Brian "Saint Paul" Ward, Chad The Elder and John Hinderaker do their thing. Then, from 1-3, Captain Ed, King Banaian and I take over.

I kinda like it so far. On the traditional NARN shows, we have four guys in the studio, all of whom have tons of opinions on every issue (which is, like, why we're all political bloggers, right?); my role was more traffic cop than talk show host, trying to "direct traffic" in the booth, trying to keep people from talking all over each other.

Last week, then, was a gas; it was just Ed and I for the whole two hours. I felt like someone who'd been confined to a cave for years stepping out onto the wide-open prairie; Space! Time to talk! Time to develop an idea before someone else wants to dive in! Truly, it was in many ways the best of all possible worlds; having a couple of hosts means less prep time for everyone (not that a week of blogging isn't a ton of prep) than if you're doing a solo show; having fewer than four means you actually get to talk. Or I do, anyway.

On top of that, congrats to Patrick Campion, who started last week hosting "Patriot Insider", the 9-11AM show with Mark Yost and Craig Westover; PC's been angling to get on the air for a while, and he landed himself a good project. He sounds good on the air, and it's hard to go wrong with Yost and Westover.

So tune in, 9AM to 3PM tomorrow afternoon on AM1280 The Patriot or over at am1280thepatriot.com.

It was pretty good last week.

One suggestion: Chad and St Paul could improve on their board operation a bit. There were quite a few long periods of dead air, mostly before the ad spots. Just a small thing but dead air really detracts from the flow.

Why wont anyone give me a radio show? It's just rediculous that loosers like the Narnderthals get a show and I don't, even though my audence is bigger than Powerline and his Edly Captainness all put together.

Read my blog.

Eva, didn't you hear? There's an opening at Air America Minnesota! The audience is almost as big as the one for your blog.

What happened to David? Spreading himself too thin? Low ratings? I can't imagine it was low ratings, his show is (well...was) the perfect feeder for NARN's demographics.
