Great phones on morning shows should be about story-telling.  Kyle and Rachel, Radio Now, Indianapolis, waded into stories about the weird things that happened at a wedding (Kyle had one to go to and an old story about accidentally setting something on fire).  Time, then, for listener calls.  Here is a fun segment of callers.  They’re short, highly engaging, and fun to hear for those tuning in.  Oftentimes, listener calls are about opinions or yes/no answers to questions.  These kinds of phones are never as good as hearing entertaining stories.

With this being the weekend of Cinco de Mayo, Eddie and JoBo on KHITS, Chicago played a fun game called “Cinco de Mayo (my-oh) or Cinco de Mayo (may-oh)”.  They had a guy on staff say a sentence in Spanish.  The sentence either referenced something around the Mexican holiday or it had to do with mayonnaise.  A nice quirky twist and a really fun dimension to a break.

Prom season is upon us.  Here’s a touching break with a listener calling Cledus, Dave, and Veronica on WQYK, Tampa to ask a girl at his school to this year’s prom.  The twist?  They put the guy asking on hold and, in a great moment of unpredictability, call the girl on the other line to get her answer!
