Should We Take Call-ins On Casual Friday?

The Show

Caller On Line I'm toying with the idea of taking call-ins for the first time in the shows history on Casual Friday's.

Would you call in to get on the air? Part of thechallenge is the analog to digital conversion delay is about one minute so there's a chance that someone could call in and we may have moved on from that topic. I can accommodate that by announcing the upcoming topics at the break so people can start dialing ahead of time.

And of course I would accommodate the caller with a question about any topic, on or off topic.

I need your feedback. Is it a good idea and would you call in? Thanks!

Hi Carl,

I love the show. I personally don't like the idea of call-ins. I think it will spoil the flow of the show and you can never predict the quality of the call. I think questions are better off on your FB page or on the forum if you do it as they can be answered easily on there. I personally would rather hear just from you or your guests.

You say this would be the first time in the show's history for listener call-ins, but I remember you trying this in the past on a couple shows (probably in show # range 300-400). I don't think you ever really got a successful call (one call was a telemarketer!), though you did mention on the front end that you weren't screening the calls...

If you can get it to work, I think it would be a great idea, as I've wanted to call several times to voice an opinion...

I would love to have the listener call-ins. I won't often have the time to call in myself, but having that interaction with the listeners would be great.

I think that would be pretty cool Carl.

I think it would be a great idea. I'm not sure if I would call in but I would be interested hearing Carl's response to the questions. That being said I love the show keep up the great work
