How do you manage time during live shows with multiple segments?

“Managing time during live shows with multiple segments is all about planning, staying organized, and being flexible. Before the show, I prepare a rough schedule — knowing exactly what needs to happen and when. But since it’s live, things can change suddenly, so I always keep an eye on the clock and stay alert.

I make sure to allocate enough time for each segment, whether it’s music, interactions, or special features, and I’m ready to adapt if something runs over or if a listener calls in unexpectedly. Staying connected with my team helps too — they keep me on track, and I can focus on engaging with the audience.

Most importantly, I keep the energy up and stay relaxed. If things go off-script, I just roll with it and make it fun — because that’s what live radio is all about. It’s all about balancing preparation with spontaneity to keep the show flowing smoothly.”
