Many stations wish we had a regular show that highlights the best of
what's on PRX. Jay Allison and his crew are among the producers doing
just that. The Transom Radio Hour shows off some of the best radio
producers and pieces and pulls back the curtain on radio craft,
revealing why the best producers do what they do. In fact that's the
subject of his latest show. Jay has five TRH's up now---try 'em!
A heads-up to all producers: please go through your pieces on PRX and
check for language issues. Not just George Carlin's seven words you
can't say on radio, but other sensitive language that can cause a
station manager to spill something. Go into 'edit pieces' and write a
big notice, plus click the box for a language advisory.
Thanks,
-John

JOSEPH DOUGHERTY'S EDITORIAL BOARD PICK
Swap Shop
Long Haul Productions, 12:00
A "music story" about a radio classified show that's been on the air on Tennessee for sixty years.
"Affectionate, embracing, but never cloying or condescending, this well-crafted documentary is a haunting reminder of how truly local radio has been stitching together the Republic for generations." - Editorial Board member Joseph Dougherty
