Working at an elite level in 2026 means you have to start getting your mind working on your show at an elite level. Don’t give up on getting better every day. You can do it. Just put more thought into what you’re going to say about every topic you bring on the air.
I’m saying you should have a list of bullet points and angles you want to present to your audience with every piece of content. You will be amazed how it all comes together during your show. Preparation is developing talking points, being able to articulate things you really understand — not being a surface-dweller disc jockey.
“Well… we’ll just see how that plays out.”
That’s lazy radio.
Take the opportunity to tell your audience,
“This is what I think is going to happen next,”
and tell them why. Your audience will appreciate you taking a bold stance on issues, especially if you are spot on.
Take risks with what you know. Don’t put yourself in a position where you look back and say,
“Dang, I should’ve said that. I was right.”
Look at how Charlamagne tha God on The Breakfast Club does not care who agrees with him or how he represents himself. This is why he is wildly successful. You can do the same thing. He’s just not afraid to say what he thinks.
You just need to do the same thing.
Practice being truthful about how you feel on subjects and watch how people start looking for what you have to say.
This is how you climb to an elite level as an air personality in 2026.
Make that your mantra.
