Sample #8
| "Hey gang!" It's Laura and Andrew of Pretty
in Pink! They tell why we're as fun as public television (wink,
wink). In this break, they thank specific listeners, and talk about
the premiums. Laura's descriptions of the WRUW sweatshirt and other
premiums are a real treat in this sample. Energetic and fun to listen
to. |

Sample #9
| Jim Szabo of Down by the Cuyahoga talks about
how he got turned on to jazz and WRUW. Good overview of the premiums.
Summarizes the content of his previous pledge breaks, and then focuses
on equipment needs. Also challenges new listeners and musicians to
call in. A bit on the long side (first 1:30 is playlist) but covers
a lot of good specific examples tied to the audience he knows. |
