StarTalk Radio Show

该提案是探索性研究（SGER）的小额赠款，用于资助专门针对商业谈话广播的新科学广播节目。 拟议中的10个一小时节目将由天体物理学家尼尔·德·格拉斯·泰森共同主持，他是畅销书作家、作家、PBS scienceNow的主持人，也是包括《每日秀》在内的有线电视网络的常客。 该节目将在CBS谈话电台KLSX播出。 该节目将邀请各种名人嘉宾以及对太空和科学感兴趣的科学家。 听众将被鼓励与客人互动，提出问题和意见。 节目将以幽默的形式呈现传统的枯燥或技术主题。 KLSX最近的试点节目在该电视台的周末脱口秀节目中产生了最多的来电。 其目标是接触到目前公共广播电台节目所不能接触到的听众，并最终在商业广播电台实现自给自足。

This Proposal is a Small Grant for Exploratory Research (SGER) to fund a new science radio show targeted specifically for commercial talk radio. The proposed 10 one hour programs will be co-hosted by Neil de Grasse Tyson, astrophysicist, popular best selling book aurthor, writer, host of PBS scienceNow, and the frequent contributor on cable television networks including The Daily Show. The programs would be broadcast on CBS Talk Radio Statiion, KLSX. The program will feature a variety of celebrity guests as well as scientists who share an interest in space and science. Listeners will be encouraged to interact with the guests calling in to pose questions and voice opinions. The programs will present traditionally dry or technical topics in a humorous format. The recent pilot program on KLSX generated the most call-ins ever during a weekend talk show on that station. The goal is to reach an audience that is not otherwise served by current programming on public radio and to eventually become self-supporting on commercial radio.
