Top 10 Hottest Media Topics for October

The start of another month – means more media guests are needed! As a Morning Show Radio Host – I LOVE discussing the topics that matter to my listeners. And it's even better if I have an expert who can share some tips with my listeners!

So here's my Top 10 Hot Media Topics list with some suggestions on how you can use them to get free media attention on Radio and TV!

OCTOBER IS:

Apple Month – Does an apple a day still keep the doctor away? I once had a nutritionist begin a year-long weekly segment on the Wayne and Jayne show with the topic of Apples. So NEVER underestimate the power of a simple topic.

Eat Better, Eat Together Month – This is a great topic for Adult Contemporary radio stations and morning TV programs. Anytime you can discuss the power of eating as a family it’s a winning topic! My wife and I have always sat around the table for every dinner with our family. The exception would be once a year for Superbowl. Otherwise no TV.

Positive Attitude Month and Emotional Wellness Month – These 2 topics are great for psychologists or motivational speakers.

Workplace Politics Awareness Month – I think an interesting angle would be the 3 or 4 main personalities you’ll meet at work…and how you deal with each. OR maybe it’s just the top 5 ways to survive office politics and enjoy your job.

Global ADHD Awareness Month – I’ve seen some very interesting info lately about a co-relation between giving toddlers’ tablets and phones to entertain themselves and how it could be a connection to ADHD. So ADHD experts – let’s hear from you!

Financial Planning Month – If you are in this financial world…use this opportunity to create a list of the TOP 5 biggest mistakes families make when it comes to finances. Radio and TV show always love discussing lists like this.

National Cyber Security Awareness Month – This is a hot topic discussed on the Wayne and Jayne Show many times. What’s the best anti-virus software? Do we need it for our phones? What are 3 things that everyone who owns a computer must do before the sun sets this evening?

National Dental Hygiene Month – Great topic for my dentist friends. I bet they see all kinds of horrible habits. So what are you recommending for toothpaste? Whitening? Bad Breath? Have fun with this list.

National Stop Bullying Month – This could be the hottest topic…as a Canadian watching American politics – I haven’t seen a public bully as bad as Donald. Holy crap…I can’t believe how he goes for the jugular of anyone who disagrees with him. Makes me wonder: is there more Bullying in the school yard or in the workplace or in Government?

If you can talk about any of these events, please send your media release to your local media. (And to me…I’m always looking for great guests with topical ideas.)

If any of these topics are perfect for you to speak about and you need some help creating your media release to pitch your local media – contact me here.
