Threat Shark!

Way back on November 13, I blogged about going through some training sessions at 92.5 The X:

I'm also preparing to experiment with broadcast work. I recently just finished up two training sessions at the local campus radio station, 92.5 The X. After finishing up a few more requirements, the goal is to have an alternative rock radio show up and running before the end of this semester. I won't be doing the show solo because that would just be boring. A friend of mine from within the journalism program is also along for the ride, and we will co-host the show together. The hope is that apart from broadcasting and streaming live, we will fire up our show in podcast form following the live-to-air broadcast. There is even the possibility of an accompanying blog to go along with the podcast version of our show. But one step at a time. Once we have the show lined up then we will take a look a few steps beyond.

Here is my update on that situation.

As of yesterday, Brendan and I have locked down our show. We met up with the programming coordinator at the local radio station and have our show ready to launch.

Threat Shark will be one hour of rock and eclectic featuring some wildly entertaining banter in between tracks. While the time slot may not be ideal for us to grab a wide range of listeners, we are going to do our best to get the show out to as many people as possible. As of right now, we plan on podcasting our shows after going live. Listeners will be able to tune in to the show via the Threat Shark blog after our live broadcast.

We will have one broadcast before the station shuts down for the holiday season. Saturday, December 3 at 8pm (PST) will be the launch of our inaugural broadcast.

I hope you tune in!
