Meet the Hosts
Dave, Stump, and Karry all began skydiving with the Lincoln Sport Parachute Club in Weeping Water, Nebraska. They now spend their summers at Skydive Chicago and their winters at Skydive Sebastian in Florida.
Brian Germain is a parachute manufacturer, canopy flight instructor, and author. His extensive knowledge of skydiving and human psychology makes him a favorite guest of Skydive Radio listeners. In his recurring segment Safety First, Brian talks about listener submitted topics on skydiving safety. More information about Brian can be found at www.CanopyFlightInstructor.com and www.TranscendingFear.com.

Advertise with Skydive Radio
Skydive Radio show sponsorships are unique advertising opportunities that offer several key benefits.
Worldwide Distribution - Skydive Radio currently reaches over 5000 active skydivers in more than 25 countries across the globe and is continually growing. In addition to the website, the show is available free of charge on iTunes and all the major podcast directories. We also have content relationships with other popular online skydiving destinations. These things all combine to make Skydive Radio easily discoverable and assessable.
Content Embedded Advertising - Skydive Radio wants the advertising we do to be compelling to our listeners and we want to insure that the advertisers we work with are actually being heard. We accomplish both these goals by building the advertising spots into the actual show content. This means that we do not break away to a pre recorded ad like you might hear in traditional radio. Instead, the hosts have a conversation about the advertisers service or product in each episode. This often leads to stories or other tangents and eventually comes back around to the product. In this way we keep our listeners interested in what they are hearing and at the same time deliver the advertisers message to an attentive audience. This style also has the added benefit of the message being delivered to the listeners directly from the hosts who they have built a level of trust with.
Free Show Archives - Every episode Skydive Radio has ever produced is available free of charge in our archives. Every month we pick up new listeners who download our entire back catalogue. This means that once your episode is released it will continue to reach new listeners indefinitely at no additional cost to you.
Limited Sponsorships - Skydive Radio limits sponsors to 3 per episode. This keeps our listeners happy and prevents our sponsors from drowning each other out. Also, we will never sell advertising to sponsors who we consider to be in direct competition with each other in the same episode or during an extended campaign.
Competitive Pricing - Current advertising prices are listed below.
Individual episodes - $475 each
4 or more episodes - $425 each
12 or more episodes - $325 each
When compared to other forms of online and print advertising that can often be skipped over by readers, we believe you will find Skydive Radio to be the best advertising value available in the skydiving industry.
