The debut episode of "Pi and I: A Radio Television Show" premieres Monday, 10/1 at 10:30 PM EST on Comcast or RCA cable, channel 19 in Montgomery County, MD. It will replay this Friday, 10/5 at 6:30 PM EST.
"Pi and I" will be hosted by Mike "Pizon" Scala (Rawkus Records recording artist) and Isaac "I-Dog" Asare (appears on Pizon’s "Do You Ever" and The Fam’s "Long Hard Road"; edited Pizon’s I Am Hip Hop DVD). It will be based in the Washington, DC area (though syndication in other areas will soon follow, and every episode will be available online) and will be an official affiliate of OneTwoOneTwo. The show aims to shine a light on underexposed artists and provide commentary on the state of Hip Hop from an insider perspective. Much like the hosts’ previous shows, one can also expect crazy antics, off-the-wall shenanigans, and random silliness in the dialogue.
A Radio/Television Show? Huh?!
The program will be formatted like a radio show, but structured as a TV show. This will allow the program to be syndicated on radio as well as television networks. Depending on where you catch it, you will be able to see pictures of artists on the screen, biographies/misc. artist info, and other relevent messages during the broadcast. A Web cam feature is also being implemented so that viewers of the TV version of the show will be able to see the hosts (and guests) in the studio during the program. "Pi and I" utilizes all the current technology to appeal to multiple senses and optimize the reach of the show. Much like its content, its presentation is very much the wave of the future.
