Truth Be Told Media & WGRR-DB Announce Formation of First All LIVE Talk Radio Station in the Country

Adds Exceptional Brand Synergy providing multiple channels of best & brightest voices in Liberty-oriented talk.

GAINESVILLE, FL & INDIANAPOLIS, IN–TBTM (TruthBeToldMedia.com) and WGRR-DB (DailyPaulRadio.com) will be the first station in history on either terrestrial airwaves or internet radio to offer LIVE round-the-clock programming during the week.

Beginning Monday, July 7th at 6am Eastern, WGRR-DB, which currently broadcasts from DailyPaulRadio.com, will merge with Truth Be Told Media, Inc., and launch the first talk radio station to provide access to a continuous round-the-clock stream of live programming Monday through Friday. The stream will be accessible via web, mobile, and a toll-free listen line.

TBTM'S LIVE TALK WILL SHATTER THE HOMOGENIZED NATIONAL REPLAY MODEL

The beauty of talk-radio was and remains the "challenge of ideas" via interactions between a host and their audience happening in real time. However, since the mid to late nineties, stations opted to merely rebroadcast five or six national hosts at different times throughout the day much to the detriment of LIVE programming. As a result, the homogenization towards talking-point, talk radio, coupled with impossible call-in schedules and absurd hold times, the talk radio audience became less engaged and stagnated as a re-broadcast of a show wholly removes audience participation and relegates hosts to performing that which is tantamount to hour long monologues, excising the very essence, i.e. conversation from the equation.

However, thanks to a bevy of talented and dedicated content producers in conjunction with the maturing of internet radio technologies, Truth Be Told Media and WGRR-DB marks the historic return of talk radio to the realm of a two-way conversational dialogue that seeks and welcomes audience participation instead of shunning it due to time zone and program-scheduling constraints.

LIMITED BREAKS PROMISE TO REFOCUS CONVERSATION ON ISSUES

In a listener satisfaction survey conducted by WGRR-DB during the first quarter of 2014, respondents listed the number and length of commercials during broadcasts as their primary dislike when tuning into the broadcast stream. As such, TBTM and WGRR-DB share a vision of providing listeners the most engaging and entertaining LIVE programming, and are committed to limiting breaks in favor of allowing for the uninterrupted flow of content, whether during a host and caller discussion or host interview with a scheduled guest. The finalized model will be tested and released in the coming months.
