Radio Script

 Radio Name: RegentsX FM


Demographic: Gen Z Regents Students (15-18 years old). In general, our target demographic would be people who use the social media app TikTok. 


Concept/Format: Due to our audience being mainly young people, the concept we have decided to use would be a talk show/interview based radio.


Presenters: The radio show will have 2 presenters as that was the most frequently answered option. This will make it easier to stay away from dead air as the presenters can find a multitude of topics to talk about and keep the show interesting.


Segments: Firstly we will want to have a segment about school gossip as it was the most requested segment in our survey. More specifically, we will have the people/person involved with the gossip come on the show and share they're side of the story and will answer questions.


Next, we would want a news segment talking about school news i.e. what events are going on in the next few weeks/what's going to happen throughout the day, like if there's going to be a university seminar, or if there'll be heavy rain and sports will have to be canceled.


Songs: The songs that will be played will be mainly the most popular songs used on the aforementioned social media app TikTok. Based on our survey, results showed that 100% of the survey takers use TikTok. The genre of songs will mostly be pop/indie/alternative rock. The songs that we are planning to use include the shortened/radio edit versions of some of the most used songs on the app like: 

  • Do I Wanna Know - Arctic Monkeys

  • Sex, Drugs, Etc. - Chit Chat

  • Me and Your Mama - Childish Gambino


Ad: There will be an advertisement segment for one of the food stalls in the school canteen promoting their food/menu. Our advertisement will be for the Orange Stall.

Maxi: Indeed, but first of all I would just like to give some appreciation to how good my friend Timo here looks! Like you look absolutely stunning today brother

Timo: (laughs) yeah what a shame there isn't a video segment to show you guys listening at home how dapper i look.

Maxi: Truly a shame, however today's radio segment won't just be talking about how good timo looks

Timo: Yes, today we have our school gossip segment with a very very special guest! 

Maxi: Think you’ll all be very surprised when they come on!

(School News)

Maxi: Today, on the __ of October was Blind date with a book day! Hope everyone had fun reading as we continue on with the spirit of bookweek. Rain poured heavily as expected as Bali is currently experiencing a heavy monsoon season. Practice for the basketball teams have been moved from the court to the gym while football team practice has been cancelled. Furthermore we would like to wish our basketball teams the best of luck as they participate in the highly anticipated JB cup! You got this guys!


And don't forget that tomorrow is the culmination of book week as we have our costume parade! Bring your best costumes and your book spirit as the fashion show gives your classes chances to win big prizes! And most importantly, remember to have fun! Now, a song that seems to have captured the generation by storm, Do I Wanna Know, by The Arctic Monkeys!

(School Gossip)

Timo: Do I Wanna Know… that song definitely makes me feel some type of way. On that note, to all of you listening at home, the weather has been quite chilly recently. Why don’t we warm ourselves up with some steaming hot quote on quote “tea” or in other words gossip. Is there anything in particular you want to talk about?


Maxi: Well Tim, the hottest tea that i can think of would probably be

Maxi: (as the song comes to an end, music is edited to become quieter as Maxi talks over the song) Wow, that song just never gets old. Wish we could keep playing some more of these days’ hot hits but unfortunately all good things must come to an end.

Timo: For real, thank you to everyone who has tuned in this far, we appreciate you all.
