Radio lesson 5

One of the most important jobs of a radio presenter is keeping his listeners entertained. Part of the entertainment is telling jokes.
When telling a joke, own the joke. Make it relatable. Tell it as if your are part of it. Here is an example of a joke I told on radio 7 years ago.

‐------------

On the way to India this year I was sitting with two guys. Out of the blue one guy told us that he is using bright pink underwear.
Curious, we asked him why he is using bright Pink Underwear.

He replied that if the plane has to crash, his bright pink underwear would be easy to locate and he will be rescued first.

The second guy, sitting in the middle seat, then told us that he is using Neon Fluorescent underwear. We asked him for his reason and it was similar to the first guys.

If the plane crashed his underwear will be a the visible for miles
and he will be rescued first.

Then it was my turn and feeling ashamed I told them that I am not wearing any underwear.

The surprise on thier face said it all. Coming closer to me they asked why I am not wearing any underwear.

Feeling shy I told that when a plane crashes the first thing they look for is the Black Box.

AI Presenter vs HUMAN Presenter

AI presenters will never compete with Human Presenters.

Radio is about creating emotions and AI presenters will not be able to create the human emotions as a Human presenter.

Listeners are also in different moods and at different times. All a Human Presenter will be able to read or know the mood of a listener. AI presenter does not have that ability
