Some Guide Lines of Radio by Valerie Geller

- Speak in term's your listener can "picture". Use Details. Describe the little things so your audience can "see" what you are talking about.
-Always start your Show with something very interesting. This ought to be obvious but often isn't.
-Tell the TRUTH.
-Never be boring
-If something is big or important is happening today, go with it.
-listen to your station, even when your not on air

-Bury the dead: If a topic is overdone drop it.
-If you are live on-air, anything goes! but anything pre-recorded should be perfect
-It is ok to brag about yourself- If it's good.
-Brag about other people's stuff. If another host on your station had a "magic moment", talk about it.
