Aahaa Kaapi Klub is becoming more interesting as days progress. When I was given an introduction to Jockeying on radio, I was told that as time goes and the initial trepidation wears off you'll be raring to go and waiting for your next time slot in front of the mic in the on-air studio. I am not expert but I quite enjoy Live radio. And if you are lucky enough to get a good producer nothing like it.
We happened to discuss about the people who make our Chennai dirty in the second hour of the show today, what they do and how should we punish them. It was a hilarious one hour ; Yes it was a serious topic but the way some people expressed their ire was interesting. One particular man happened to say how the garbage trucks strew garbage all over the road when they are on the run. The way he said "vazhi puuuuuuuuraaaaaa kottinde povanga madam" was really funny. And one man said how these pan-parag chewers-and-spitters must have their mouths tightly bound. And after each song, I have to remind the callers about the phone number and what we are talking about.. and wasn't this my time to use all new adjectives, naya vanjagargal, kodusoorargal.. ahh it was my field day. I am waiting for tomorrow morning :D

The Morning (night for US) Kaapi club program is doing good, interesting and quite different. Different topics and nice viewpoints. It has given a opportunity for listeners to air their view points.We really need a good talk radio culture to elicit the opinion of the public. Nice start though. Hope it continues...

Chinmayi, your style of writing is nice and casual. Glad to know you are an RJ. I have a radio show as well, in NJ (Southern Spice - tamil music show with Venky, every wednesday 7-9 pm ET live on www.dhoomfm.com).

BTW: The grasshopper photograph is excellent. What camera did you use?
