What you should do is get Glen Rhodes and Cormac Stark in the same Skype call and record it. Let them debate about any topics they wish. Or you can have panel discussions which feature a few TRT staff and a couple of guests each time. It'd be entertaining... well hopefully. There's always good gameplay gossip about and if its a slow week, you can throw in a topic like "regionalism vs. cosmopolitanism" and just let people go at it.

I was think on these lines as well but the major problem would get the interview on audio. My main dream is doing something like (NPR) National Public Radio


There are programs that allow you to record Skype conversations, which is a straightforward way to get the interview's audio.

Karpathos had a golden radio voice. Man, I felt silly on a radio segment with him. He sounded like a real announcer and I sounded like the technical buffin from down the hall who mixes the levels.

Would basically be Crossfire.

I don't know if I'd do a radio show, but I could probably be talked into it. I tend to keep my personal stuff separate from NS, and that has included what I look like. My voice also probably isn't very soothing.

This is a political simulation game, linking Crossfire's wiki is wholly unnecessary :hug: Really good idea though.

That might actually work!
Ideas:
1) News
2) Debates
Maybe we can make an organization out of this and have different regions talk in the broadcast

I definitely support the idea! My only problem was getting others to help do the work. I would love to see Rejected Radio launched again. Especially with such enthusiasm! If the rest of the staff supports this, I'll be sure to use the new voice I've been wanting to replace my actual voice with during recordings. :D

It wouldn't actually be Rejected Radio as in my idea as people from all regions can help in our work. But the idea is the same
Anyway the main goal is to create a organization in which entire regions can join and help us broadcast. Instead of the same people talking, new voices can be heard. If a major event is happening for example Balder, Balder's radio team can report it through our broadcast.

Have you guys decided on a name? Mine is (IPR) Interregional Public Radio

If you approach The Rejected Times about a radio, it is to be expected that that they plan to make it Rejected Radio.

I'm open to other names. I'm partial to the project succeeding, not the name.

A few suggestions off the top of my head:

Regardless of the name, I'm gathering as many staff members as possible. I'll let you know when we have a suitable number of members.
