Unless you are working at a talk radio station, broadcasters should watch their speech bands. There's so much talk on radio stations in Lagos that are not talk stations. There's a fine balance to be had in setting the tone for a convo and just talking.
Now if you work at a talk radio station, it's easy to fall into the trap of talking to much in introducing a conversation. I fell into that trap myself. But you have to be conscious of it. Be specific about the info you set the tone with. Add details and context as you go along.
Just listened to 2 talk show hosts use about 10 minutes to introduce their topic. Introduced guests at beginning of 10 minute speech band, so much info given. I forgot what they had said in the beginning.
