Favorite On Air Cliche's

[12 In a Row]

On a cheezy remote how many times will you hear?

"Stop on by" or
"We're having a great time." 

[firepoint525]

I always loved "a little" when talking about the music...

Coming up a little Led Zep & Pink Floyd plus you just heard a little ZZ Top. Why is everyone so little? 

This one is especially bad when referring to one-hit wonders or anyone on their first hit.  If they promise "a little Zager & Evans," wonder what song they will play?  "2525," maybe?

[Meepster]

It'd HAVE to be "2525" I know of no other. But...teasing with just the artist and letting them think of the song themselves DURING the break...might help 'em stay around to find out. If it's a multi-hit artist maybe a little tease about WHICH song works the same way.
We all like to "know" the answer and guess right.

"After this break."

"Right after this."

"Up next."

Telegraphing spot breaks. My favorite.

Or, "The weather calls for."

Or, "On your Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, etc."

"Takin' your requests."

"Takin' you back to ______"

"That's such a great song."

[DeadElvis]

When the talent "thanks" another staff member on-air for a bit, such as a remote break.  TV does this all the time, especially in an exchange between weather and the anchor.

No need to thank; it's his job.  Thanking is just lazy.

I also had a jock working for me who called snow, "the white stuff."  He also once gave a weather as showing a "50% chance of your getting wet...."  "What if I stay inside?" I asked.

I avoid cliches like the plague.

UP THERE, DOWN THERE, OVER THERE (like the station is a geo-center).

Calling a remote a remote, are you lonely....

I avoid cliches like the plague.

Isn't that a clinche ?

"coming back with"

and during football and basketball broadcasts "(insert team name) is to the left end of the radio dial "

often heard in MS. "dropped on you" used to refer to a song being dropped on the listeners of the station.
