We engineer professional shows... perfect for podcasting!

Global Talk Radio was launched in 2004 with the sole purpose of providing the very best station for talk show hosts, guests and listeners to come together.  With several new and exclusive shows already in production, supplemented by informative and inspirational material from other providers, we are on our way to becoming the world's fastest growing source of live, streaming and archived quality programming.

Advantages of hosting your own show:

  • You will become an instant STAR!

  • You will establish your credibility and expertise.

  • You will gain international exposure and publicity.

  • You will earn heightened respect and prestige among your peers.

  • You reach a highly-targeted audience that is interested in your experience and what you have to offer.

  • You may be able to sell advertising and generate revenue for your show.

  • Your celebrity status will open doors to new opportunities, both personally and professionally.

  • And most of all... it's fun!

You can join the growing world of talk radio programming by hosting your very own show online.  Internet talk radio is the fastest growing outlet for new talk shows, and is quickly becoming a driving force behind syndicated programming on conventional sources (AM & FM) and for newer technologies (Satellite & Cable).

What we do for you:  (benefits vary by hosting package)

  • Professionally engineer, produce, record and store your show

  • Make your archived shows available for on-demand streaming

  • Mix in your royalty-free bumper music, as appropriate

  • Configure your show's web page with your personal information and links to your own website

  • Promote your show to other listeners throughout our station

No experience is necessary, as we provide all the technical support necessary to produce, broadcast and archive your show.  An engineer will assist you in preparing bumper music and connecting with guests and listener call-ins, and your program will be recorded and stored in a universal format for archiving and rebroadcast.  If you live in the Los Angeles area, we invite you to host your talk show from our studio; if you live outside of the L.A. area, you can still host your talk show by telephone from your home or office.

How it works:

  • Each week, you will dial into the station's recording center at your pre-agreed time

  • If you have guests or co-hosts, they will call in at the same time

  • An engineer will perform a "sound check" and get you started

  • Your program will be recorded and broadcast live

  • After the show, our engineer will check to see if any critical adjustments are necessary to the recording

  • Bumper music will be mixed into the beginning and end of the recording

  • Within a couple days, your show will be posted and available for on-demand streaming and MP3 downloads.

  • You can supply a short description for each show, which feeds keywords into search engines like Google
