  Speaker 1: Aero dot net. It's more than just a podcast. It
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: is a podcast network that features so much more than
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: just one long podcast. One of the top shows is
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: all level sports. You don't have to like just the NBA,
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: Major League Baseball, and basketball. No, you can get into
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: something like how about this American Gladiators. It's all level sports,
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: professional wrestling, all level sports. You've got your own channel.
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: It's on Aero dot net, Aroe dot net. Enjoy your exploration. Hey,
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: it's me that question guy, the one that's always asking
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: questions because it's so much fun researching for answers. One
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: of them, why are these rock documentaries so popular with
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: the masses? Plus? Has terrestrial radio always been ruthless to
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: its on air talent. My name is Arrow. I'm a
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: daily writer, a silid wolf. That means I stand on
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: the sidelines and do nothing but watch, listen, study, then activate.
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: I happen to call it the Daily Mess because it's
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: a chronological walk through in everyday world. It is my
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: morning writing as a receiver of thoughts and ideas. We
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: as people tend to throw things to the side because
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: we think we're gonna deal with it later on, and
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: then life happens. Well, when a subject arrives inside of me,
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: I know it's time to dig in. It's still keeping
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: that daily journal, but by doing that research, the picture
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: will become clearer. This is the daily mess. Why are
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: these rock band documentaries so popular with the masses. Well,
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: it's a winning formula that includes music combined with storytelling,
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: nostalgia and the really biggie human drama. It's creatively put
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: together and it pulls both fans and regular people that
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: have nothing to do with the band together. It's not
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: just about the songs. These documentaries feature creative people under
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: a lot of pressure, friendships that turn into rivalry, Fleetwood
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: Max style love relationships, inside the ranks of the band,
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: and the ever popular egos clashing against egos and all
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: of a sudden there's creative tension. There's so much drama.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: You can't write a better story than about a rock
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: band or a rock star. The documentaries feature scenes of
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: classic songs being created, life on the tour bus, and
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: what fame does to people. The documentaries are huge in
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: popularity because it's music that you feel, stories that are real,
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: and famous people who are just normal. They're flawed, they're
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: just under a lot of pressure. Hey, coming up next.
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: Has the business of radio always been ruthless against the
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: people that are on the air? Hey, thanks for coming
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: back to the daily mess. A lot of listeners don't
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: know this, those in the business do, and a lot
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: of them don't talk about it. But we're going to today.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: Has the business of radio always been a ruthless business
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: partner with those on the air? Yeah, the jock if
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: they still call them jocks today it's one of those
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: moments when you can say out loud, you knew what
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: it was when you picked it up. Come on, Yeah,
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: Research unveils what radio already knows. The industry is ruthless
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: to the on air performers. Here's the thing. It's changed
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: over the years between the nineteen twenties and nineteen fifties,
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: and on air talent was seen as being replaceable, not brands.
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: The shows were owned by sponsors. If ratings slipped, bye bye.
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: Here came the nineteen sixties to the nineteen eighties. The
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: talent got some power thanks to FM radio, but bu
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: bu bu bu, but management still held the keys to
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: the car. The nineteen nineties through the two thousands, it's
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: been about consultalidation, voice tracking replacing jocks. One host has
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: heard on several different stations massive layoffs everywhere, which is
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: the reason why I don't have any respect for Ryan Seacrest.
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: Every radio station he's on, you, as a listener should say, oh,
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: somebody local lost their job. Come on, it's the truth.
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: Depending on your perspective here, because in the business world,
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: my god, you mean we can save on money by
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: not spending it on radio people, by just having these
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: voices everywhere. Yeah, that's a good decision. You see, there's
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: two sides of the coin. It really does depend on
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: that perspective. Management calls it survival. The on air talent
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: calls it a disposable, unstable and impersonal walk through entertainment.
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: I'm marrow An. That's the daily mess.
