Manter
name

Name or title of program: Manter (This is a mix of the words man and banter)

Brief description / synopsis

The podcast will be much laid back like a conversation between friends I think that this will work very well as it will let the listener relax. The topics that we will talk about are thing like film, games and comics. These are things that I have strong back ground in and know lots about. There is a large amount of people who also like seeing the best films and playing the newest games. I find that people do one of these thing do the other are at least have an interest in them.

Content

In Manter the content would change from week to week because we would change the topic of what we would take about. One week it would be the best films next week it would be about the best music. Each week we would have a topic we would talk about but beforehand we would talk about any big news of the week. I do not think that we would interview anyone we could have a guess on an episode but I would not interview them. At the end of the podcast we would go throw some fan feedback. Me (Harry Swallow) and my friend Mitch Morton will be presenting the podcast Manter. We will be talking in a very informal manner because it will appeal more to the audience. We will be talking the News, current affairs, music, films, games, and cars. Anything that will be talked about in the news and any other popular topics. We will have a short intro sound that will be more of a jingle. If we make more it will be segment in the podcast and each segments will have its own small jingle. When we get people listening to us we will ask for people to ring in to talk to us and I will set up an e-mail account so that people can get in contact with us at any time. We will not be having any guest for the first podcast but maybe on a latter one. At the end of the podcast we would go throw some fan feedback.

Interviews and as it is a podcast there would not be any phones in as it would all be pre-recorded. We would use thing like face book, twitter and email.
