Streaming PLA Ideas

August 31, 2010, 03:23:36 PM rbcp - We goan find you, we goan find you, so you can run and tell that, run and tell that homeboy.

So I'm setting up our own shoutcast server, which will possibly run 24 hours a day, just streaming prank calls, music and podcasts.  And, of course, The Phone Show will broadcast live once a week from it.  I'd like some input if anyone has any ideas for it.

First of all I need a station name for it.  Back in 2002 - 2003, I ran a 24/7 shoutcast server on my home bandwidth and called it PLA Radio.  That name is sort of taken now though.  Something like The Phone Loser Broadcast Network might be appropriate.  Maybe I could call it something completely un-PLAish and set up its own separate domain.

Would anyone here want to do any shows on it?  Either pre-recorded or live?  I can probably set up something to accommodate that eventually.

We could play past and current episodes of Off the Hook and Off the Wall.

RTF or notkevin, you guys wouldn't mind, right?

finally, a station to host my Hockey Talk Radio Hour.

I can't wait for Skunkworks Google Hour.

How about the Canadian DTMF Hour of Power?

How about the Canadian DTMF Hour of Power?

We should call it "Excuse me, sorry to bother you, but would you like to listen to us talk about telephones?"

edit: Skunkworks should do the "VOIP Report" and play that news music.

[Skunkworks]

Haha I love the idea of a Skunkworks VoIP report.

As far as content, being the technically minded phreaker I am, I must insist on you playing old episodes of Default Radio and Phreak Phactor, those were some more technically minded phreaking shows that also had high entertainment value.

You can find a bunch of great old podcasts and other phreaking audio archived on audio.textfiles.com

I just love spessa. I should co-host an entire episode with spessa one week when brad can't host. I'll spend the entire show reading off schematic directions for phreaking boxes while spessa calls me a retard.

This is relevant to my interests.

PLA! LIVE! /

I like Phone Losers Live.

Would anyone here want to do any shows on it?  Either pre-recorded or live?  I can probably set up something to accommodate that eventually.

I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not, but maybe shows should be on a first-come first-serve basis. Like, if I want to host a show, I can just call in and host it at any time (without following a schedule).

And if I call in while somebody else is hosting a show, I'll have to just wait until they're finished or come back later.

And if nobody is hosting a show, it will just play pre-determined pranks, music or whatever (maybe on a loop) until somebody calls in and takes control.

[Skunkworks]

Also, why not broadcast the bridge live on the stream some times, like once a week for three hours, you know, sort of a wiki phone show of sorts.

I think you should call it "Phonelosers 24/7"

[murd0c]

They already did that with PhreakPhactor, back in 2004. It didn't really work out very well.

You're all invited to be guests on my new radio show, however.

[afreak]

Murd0c, I can be your quirky Canadian guest who uses "eh" in every sentence.

RTF and i can call Nigerian scammers! 

[rbcp]

I got the station running.  Just threw a bunch of PLA Radio episodes and PLA songs on it for now, but it's working.
