It's like JustinTV when it came out. Because the user base in nostr is growing organically you can make your radio project and even if it sucks at first people will interact with it just because there is not much happening and a radio show is something to interact with.
Been having fun getting a new Nostr native live radio show streaming at zap.stream Many thanks to nostr:npub1v0lxxxxutpvrelsksy8cdhgfux9l6a42hsj2qzquu2zk7vc9qnkszrqj49 for building the platform!
Greybeard Radio is a throwback to the great days of FM radio before it became commercialized and formatted. What we would now call the centralization of media.
The show features music from any era 50s - 2020s, pop, jazz, blues, funk, rock and or whatever the listeners are feeling. Within the program, I will feature some live interviews with people from the Nostr world, Bitcoiners or other related interests. We will also be using live voice for listener dedications, mentions, projects to watch etc.
The thinking is... make it fun and light, so that folks from the era of great old FM radio (Boomers) can listen in, recognize some songs they haven't heard in decades (we are not going with the burnt out "classic rock" format used by every rock station in the country), Moms, Dads, Aunts, Uncles, Grandparents can listen in, maybe learn how to use Nostr and also something about Bitcoin in a fun friendly atmosphere.
If I get this right, we can help onboard a whole demographic and Make Radio Great Again at the same time.
I'm the dee-jay and program director.
Hope you'll check it out and if you like it, invite the folks 😄 to take this ol' greybeard's show for a spin.
