Studio Rumors, Updates & News - as of DECEMBER 2011
We at the LA Radio Studio want to thank the many people who have visited our website and made inquiries about the studio's availability.
As we close out another year, we also want to wish you all a Merry Christmas, a Happy Holiday season & a prosperous New Year.
Here is what is currently going on at the LA Radio Studio:
Currently "Mentors of New Thought Talk Radio" airs "live" every Wednesday from noon until 1pm, with plans for expanding the hours. "Mentors" can be heard at their website either live or in an "on demand" form following the live presentation.
LA Radio Sessions is a new filmed program that spotlights new, unique and interesting artists, primarily from music, but will eventually cover other art forms. We've completed six shows featuring the band One High Five and singer-songwriters, Mimi Page, Brandon Schott, VK Lynne and Che Zuro. All the episodes are available to view at Spinbridge.com, who we will continue to partner with on various projects in the near future.
"Radio Screamer" is hosted by Dave Castagno, who was the founder, editor and owner of the original "Screamer" magazine - which was THE publication for the LA heavy metal scene. You can listen live at our UStream location every Wednesday at 2pm (Pacific time). "Radio Screamer" recent guests have included Phil Collen of Def Leppard and Marq Torien of BulletBoys, who gave a "live" in studio performance of some of his current work. Actress/video vixen Tawny Kitaen also recently visited "Radio Screamer" with a two-hour interview that could also be viewed on a webcam via UStream. The archived show is available at this location: http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/15699871
We continue development on "Nights At The Sound Table" (Wednesdays at 7:30pm), a program featuring people who love music talking about the thing they love. The shows Internet fan base continues to grow and marketing plans are being put in place to have the show syndicated to terrestrial radio.
All of the LA Radio Studio programs along with other projects in development are streamed "live" on UStream at: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/laradiostudio and many shows are archived at the same location.
Visit our "Think Tank" page for more on how YOU can be involved in the exciting things going on at the LA Radio Studio. The shows listed below ALL came from ideas that partner us with others in development of new radio and new media projects. If you've got a creative project idea that can be turned into a revenue stream, let's talk about working together to make your idea REAL.
With all the "development" at the LA Radio Studio, we also want to remind our "radio" friends that we are available for your radio show needs. If you have an existing radio show or are developing one, please consider us when looking for a permanent home. Our rates are reasonable and we are staffed with radio professionals that will help make your show successful.
We have upgraded our ISDN system with a Telos Zephyr 9202, replacing our Adtran units, allowing more flexibility in transmission settings for our clients. We recently hosted a guest to NPR's "Here & Now" program via ISDN to their studio at WBUR in Boston and hope to work with them in the future to help them add a west coast presence to the show.
Last year we hosted our first, non-radio, corporate client who produced a series of "webinars", utilizing company specialists brought together from locations throughout the country, in a roundtable discussion, spotlighting their various products. We now realize, not only is our facility a perfect setting for traditional radio but, that the studio configuration is perfect for this type of event. Because of our connections with various restaurants in the area, we are able to provide these clients with great dining opportunities for their breaks in the sessions. We are hoping to do more of these types of events in the future.
Recently we hosted our second "reality" show at the studio for a German TV production. Prior to that we hosted a portion of an episode of a new "social experiment" (reality) show, "Forever Young", produced by Ashton Kutcher, was centered around a "talk show" coming from the LA Radio Studio.
We've also started a LA Radio Studio Newsletter that will keep you informed about new programming and ways that YOU can be involved in future broadcasts, podcasts and special live streaming events. Return to the home page to subscribe.
If you haven't yet visited our facility, please e-mail us and we'll set up a time for you to see what we have to offer.
