My voice on the radio

Posted on December 18, 2008 at 5:05pm | 5 comments

The Mount Gambier commercial radio station 5SE does a promotional segment called “The Local You Know” and I was invited to participate.

The announcer has a list of about 30 questions which he asks the sucker interviewee to give impulse answers to.

I’m fairly cautious and probably didn’t let fly like a commercial radio guy would like, eg Sarah Palin talking to the French President.

Anyhow, here is my recording, thanks to Ewan Grant at 5SE/Star FM.

    with that typical radio station’s
    background music it sound like a commercial !
    It’s interesting because I’ve never heard Australian accent before!

    Very cool.

    It sounds like a nice feature the station is running.

    Spot on Delmer, with your radio background showing through!

    It was a type of promo, not an interview and not an ad, but they ran it like an ad, multiple times.

    We did a “sign off” as well, eg “This is Michael Gorey from The Border Watch and 5SE is the local I know.”
