 Radio Script Example A

It’s another snowy Thursday evening and here’s another trip down memory lane with
Rick’s Classic Rock here at D-V-S, the voice of Chinatown Radio.

We have the Rolling Stones on tap tonight along with a little Steppenwolf and a
healthy serving of Led Zeppelin. So let’s start the evening with a perennial favorite,
“Stairway to Heaven.”

You just heard “Stairway to Heaven.” More than 40 years after its release, this
remains one of the top influences on rock music.

The snow’s really piling up out there. I can hear a few thousand students chanting,
“snow day” and a few hundred parents crying. I don’t mind the snow. This is the only
time of year when my yard looks as nice as the one next door.

You are listening to Rick’s Classic Rock on D-V-S, the voice of Chinatown Radio.
Next up is a song sure to make you forget all about winter for a while—“Born to Be
Wild.”

awesome music for you today, but first let’s check out the new song by Childish
Gambino—This is America.

Great new song from Childish Gambino. That’s going to be a classic! Now you can

McLean.
