College radio host: Cora

College radio host, bright, offbeat, and enthusiastic

Prompt: A bright, quirky young female voice for a college-radio indie show. Her lively mid-register is offbeat and enthusiastic, treating obscure music as treasure, fun and current. There's a you-won't-hear-this-anywhere-else delight in her tone. The sound of a host who makes a 2 a.m. campus radio slot feel like the coolest room in town.

Script: Okay, so this next band has like 400 monthly listeners and after tonight it's going to be 400 and however many of you are awake right now, which, respect, it's a school night. I found them on a demo tape a friend of a friend recorded in a basement and it is genuinely weirdly perfect.
