Oh, didn't look at his Facebook page, just the two websites listed on Art's site. Thanks!

So you are one of those "sheeple" that believes what the newspapers report!
Quote from: MV on February 06, 2014, 12:41:32 PMWhen I did an afternoon political talk show in Pensacola, I was told the same 1:100.
when i was in terrestrial radio, i heard that during a given broadcast, one out of every 100 listeners MIGHT call. i don't know how much truth there is to that, but there it is.
Quote from: Juan on February 06, 2014, 04:42:53 AMOur show is pre-recorded and we don't take calls. We get about 600-1000 downloads per episode from our website, and I don't know how many yet from iTunes. We are happy with these numbers, as it is a niche show, on a niche network. We get feedback from listeners via Facebook, email, and twitter - so I know someone's out there...
Yeah, I've heard a figure, but I don't remember exactly what it was. It's pretty small - 10% ever in their lives or something like that. It may be even lower.
MV and Curtis get few calls, but I think MV said they have more than 4000 downloads per episode from iTunes.
Quote from: dan7800 on January 22, 2014, 12:02:11 PMFull disclosure - I host a show on Saturday nights called "Into The Planet." The content on DMRN is pretty much all over the board. From ghostly paranormal to science to culture and current events. The production values are also all over the place. That said, it is hard to judge the entire network based on only a few shows. I have found a few I really like, and a few that I couldn't get ten minutes into before my ears began to bleed. But, it is purely grass roots with many of us broadcasting from garages and basements. I speak for myself when I say that I hope Art Bell returns via the DMRN and the rising tide lifts all boats.
Haven't listened to this network and have little desire to do so.

Then, when you were pushing your grocery cart in the parking lot, Art popped out from behind a car, snatched one of your cans of Vienna Sausages, and said "No one will ever believe you."
Quote from: Juan on January 08, 2014, 08:40:03 AMYou are absolutely right. Berry Gordy and Smokey Robinson of MOTOWN records would have the engineers listen to recordings through car radio speakers - because that is how most of the audience heard the music. In this case, most of the DMRN audience is probably listening through computer speakers and/or ear buds. I do all the post production of Into The Planet on a mac laptop and listen to the final mix through the same.
I agree that content is king, but you have to master the craft of technology, too. If listeners can't understand the content, the content is wasted. Into the Planet is excellent. Two hosts and telephone interviews, all very clear. Also, the playoff of the two hosts is very well done. Others are also excellent. And some that began poorly have improved.
An Audio-Techinca USB mic may work very well, but a $29.99 Radio Shack one probably will not. Using headphones for mixing is a good idea, but play the final mix through normal computer speakers, too, as that is what most folks will be listening through. Back in the 70s and 80s, recording engineers would master records with big speakers, but they would also check the sound through monaural small speakers to make sure the mix would sound good over car radios.
