Collaborate

Do you want to collaborate with us?  It's as simple as calling us at 888-635-1112 and pressing 2 to record. 

  • Do you want to be a critic-for a minute? Molly and Brian from the Morning AMp want to hear from you.  Leave them a rant or rave about a movie, song, person, gadget, etc.  If it catches their ear, they'll air it during Friday's critic for a minute. 
  • Share a personal story.  Make us laugh, cry, or roll our eyes.  If its amazing, we'll air it. 
  • Report a news story.  Give us the scoop on an issue that we should be talking about. 

(Psst.. and if you have a secret you want to tell us anonymously, call our Secret Hotline: 888 963 1112)

Do you have a podcast?  Do you have recorded stories?

We like spoken word, provocative conversations, and short-stories.  Upload your stories and we'll consider them for the Vocalo Mixtape or feature them on one of our shows.  UPLOAD YOUR STORIES HERE

Are you in a band? Are you an MC?  Do you make beats?  Do you want us to consider your music for the radio?

We're strong supporters of independent/local music.  Submit your stuff and we'll consider it.

INTERNSHIPS: It takes real people to make real radio, and you can hear the work of our interns and volunteers every day on Vocalo.org and Vocalo 89.5FM. Vocalo offers quarterly internships where you get to be directly involved with our daily shows and learn the basics of digital editing, tape gathering, production and segment production for broadcast.

From my debut album, Fear The Accordion

Every Sunday night in my misspent youth we would get together to play D&D

We'd take out our dice and we'd take out our books and we'd order a pizza

Just so we could see Pizza Girl...
