Summary: Following Episode 32, which defined the terms used when working a song to radio, we figured it would help to define radio itself. At least it's formats! AC, CHR, Hot AC, Country, Rock, Modern Rock...what does it all MEAN? Dale, Amber, Roo and India talk about the kind of music you hear at the various Canadian formats, in the hopes of helping you decide where your music belongs. Of if you aren't a musician, maybe we can help you understand why your local station plays the music does! Radio Dale is the podcast about music, musicians and the Canadian music industry from our unique perspective at the Dale Speaking offices. We help bring indie and established acts to radio, and spread the word online, as well as develop their careers in today's ever-changing music business. This podcast gives away some of our best information for free, and serves as the 'radio show' the broadcast the ideas, observations and insights we discover every day working with Canadian and International artists. For every iTunes Rating and Review that Radio Dale receives, we'll give a rusting old radio tower a new chance at life! So please...give...so we can give back! PART ONE: This Week In Music History looks at some cool moments in the history of the music industry, day by day.

PART TWO: The whole team talks radio formats. We talk about the differences between the pop formats (AC, Hot AC and CHR), the rock formats (Rock and Modern Rock) and the unique position of Country. Dale offers some very cool insights into his life growing up with radio and working in it, and we ask the question: would you prefer that radio formats be diverse with crossovers...or stricter and more concise?
