In September, Hypable.com will add to its ongoing podcast network with Hypable’s Glee Chat! And we’re looking for the biggest Gleeks out there to join us as a regular host! Check out the application and requirements and let us know if you have what it takes to be a part of our Glee Chat!
UPDATE: Application submissions are now closed. Thank you everyone who submitted an application. We will be narrowing it down to a top 10 for the second phase of the process. We will be sending out an email to everyone who submitted an application sometime this week to let you know if you have made the top 10 or not. Thanks again!
Do you want to be a regular host on Hypable’s Glee Chat? We’re looking for some Hypable Gleeks who would be willing to be on the show! Check out the requirements and application below!
Things To Know
- Hypable’s Glee Chat will be hosted by resident Gleek John Thrasher. We’re looking for 3 or 4 other Gleeks who will join the show every week as regulars with a maximum of 4 hosts per episode.
- Season 3 of Glee will air on Tuesday evenings. Ideally, we would like to record a 30 – 60 minute show immediately after Glee airs, with the intention of posting the new episode by noon on Wednesday. This will REQUIRE that you are available from 8-9pm EST (for Glee) and then 9-10pm EST (recording Glee Chat). If you are unable to make these times every Tuesday night, please do not apply.
- As a co-host you will not gain access to Hypable.com credentials, but will definitely be included in various site announcements that pertain to you. In other words, co-hosting on the show does not mean you will be a writer for Hypable.com.
Requirements
- A Facebook account (we collaborate in Facebook groups)
- A Twitter account
- A Skype account
- A USB microphone (with high quality)
- Sound recording software (Audacity or QuickTime)
- Availability Tuesday nights from 8 – 10:30pm EST
- Must be very familiar with Glee characters, news, etc.
- Enthusiasm
- Patience
Application
If you think you have the time and dedication to be a regular podcaster, then you should apply by e-mail to [email protected] with the following information:
- Name
- Age
- Location (country, etc.)
- Skype, Facebook and Twitter user names
- A paragraph (5-10 sentences) about why you love Glee and would be a great cohost.
- A few sentences about who your favorite character on the show is and why.
- If you have a blog or writing samples online, send those as links.
- Detail any experience you have with podcasting or radio broadcasting (links to websites would be great!)
The deadline for the e-mail applications is Sunday, August 28th. We will contact 10 candidates on Monday, August 29th for the next phase of interviews!
