98.3 - turn it on

[tonight's broadcast comes a little early, for the sake of the curious who like their sleep. Mark turns on his record player, and the broadcast picks up the scratch of the needle for a brief moment before Leonard Cohen's voice drifts over the airwaves. After a moment, he turns it down, but not completely off, and speaks over the music:]

So, not much goin' on in the halls of Castle Wonderfuck this week, besides the usual bullshit. The Host Club did their thing down in the ballroom, though yours truly didn't go. There's a poll up on page [this one] of the journal ... if you're bored and have a second, go check it out. We've only got one new guy, this week ... someone named Treebeard. I'll take bets on whether his parents were hippies or not, how 'bout you?

The real news tonight is a little on the self-promoting side. Yours truly, being of completely rational modesty, is holding an open broadcast forum down here in the ballroom! The accoustics are great, so if you're wonderin' how to work that brand-new shiny radio of yours, come on down and I'll show you the basics! And for those of you who know a little bit already, I've hauled down some of the more high-tech stuff you can add on to make things even more fun. So come down and spin some platters with me! Bring your favorite tunes and we'll get this castle up off its collective ass and rockin' out!

[and with that, he'll switch over from vinyl to CDs, and play this little number while he waits for people to show]

((OOC: There will be a specific section up in this post for anyone who wants to come down to the ballroom! Anyone replying over the journals can reply to the post as usual.))

Oh! [He laughs with him.] Sorry, I'm Peeta. I spoke to you after one of your broadcasts.

Pretty good, man. Just getting used to all of this.

[He plops down in one of the chairs and takes one short spin before stopping and setting his radio on the table.]

So, we can broadcast on these? Like television, or those journals?

Nah, we've got both. There are big television screens in every district to broadcast an event, so I knew about televisions for a long time. And my family wasn't rich enough to own a television or a radio. Now that I'm... [RICH.] set for life, I can afford to have both. I just don't use either much. All there is to listen to or watch is propoganda.

Lottery?

You could say I won it from a competition.
