Featured Guest Application Process:


Q. As hosts of the Conscious Discussions talk radio show, what do you look for in a guest?

A. Guests range from environmentalists, authors, volunteers and water conservationists to book promotion experts; the guests are spoken to live from across the globe - including West Africa, Canada, the US and the UK. We want someone who is passionate about what they do and will inspire our listeners to become more proactive in their own lives, while discussing an important issue.


Q. What do you want to know about potential guests?

A. We do not require past experience or samples of previous interviews, although most hosts prefer guests who have some experience. People who want to appear on our show as a featured guest simply query us and explain how their cause, book, topic or endeavor fits in with the focus of our show. If they are passionate and we feel strongly about their message then we welcome them to appear on Conscious Discussions. After all, our show is not about finger pointing, but more saluting those individuals making positive changes we all want to see in this world.

Q. What is your idea of an undesirable guest?

A. One who over-talks the host and doesn’t leave room for the host to respond. Clearing of throats, typing on a keyboard and excessive background noise during an interview are all disruptive. It is also offensive to listeners when a guest breathes into the phone or has the phone so close to their mouth that “f’s”, “p’s”, “s’s” and “sh’s” sounds become offensive and abrasive

Q. What determines if guests are invited back?

A. We have invited guests to appear again in future shows for three reasons. First, they were very passionate about their topic and inspired enthusiasm in our listeners and us. Secondly, if the show seems to end too quickly and we feel that they could have covered more information than they were able to during that first interview. Finally, the company or individual may have created a new product or endeavor that would be of added interest to our listeners.

Q. How should someone approach you?

A. We want to know why our audience would find them interesting as guests on Conscious Discussions. Bio's and press releases are nice, but not necessary. Because our time is very limited, we prefer to hear from them in their words why they should be on our show and refer us to their website – and this should be where their bio, credentials, awards, press releases, present endeavors and so forth would be available for us to browse. Authors who are looking to query a program director or the host of a radio show should be aware of the fact that sending attachments along with query letters is considered bad etiquette.

Q. What happens if a guest emails you and you don't respond within a reasonable time? Should the person email or call you?

A. No. We always respond even if it is to say "no thanks". However, if the person has experienced technical glitches with their Internet server or computer and is worried the email did not to through - they can write and explain this, and we would understand that.

Q. What are some of the pet peeves that you have when it comes to queries?

A. When someone writes asking us to promote them or writes a query letter in an unprofessional manor, we are unlikely to respond in a positive way. Guests should be aware what their own time zone is and not pester the host with questions like how long the show is when that information is usually available on the program’s website and in the information package that approved guests receive. If the applicant hasn’t listened to the program or researched the site, it shows.
