BTLS Listening Thread - June 2015

[Cpt. Mcgillicutty]

Ok guys, just for shits and grins I notated the last block of commercials on 98.7...

Pyro Junkie
Parenting/brush your teeth PSA
Auto Glass America
Grads of Life PSA
Ready.gov PSA
Discover the Forest PSA
Tommy Hilfiger Autism PSA
Ned/Villages pool sex bit
Feed the pig.org PSA
Discover the forest PSA
Jamie McMurray Autism PSA
25cent Fro bit

So I ask, where is the money in that?
I just can't see PSA's paying that much money
Maybe Drew could shed some light on the situation (I'm not being a dick, if you have insight, would you please share it, TIA).

Is that on FM or te internets? I never hear that shit on FM...well rarely. but as I said, it is only when driving around.

That was FM via The Tunein app, which is exactly the same as what goes over the regular air.

I really don't think it is the same. Same with the Bone on tune in..all kinds of PSA's when I used to listen.

Next break I'll tune into my truck to see.

Public Service Announcements are traditionally used by radio stations as either a trade agreement for carrying nationally-syndicated shows (like Lovelines) or as a way to fill spot breaks that are devoid of paying advertisers. They are not a source of revenue. You are correct in that there is no money to be found in playing them.

How does money relate to getting beat by a "character" with half the power and playing music? Gotta be embarrassing. The people have caught on to the horseshit radio daBone puts out.

[Dr_Jeckyll]

The Bone has maybe 1 PSA per commercial break, not 8.

Which prolly is a factor for businesses wanting to pay for ads I would think. It breaks up on me when I get by the beaches some days. Weak shit!
