INTERVIEW: Dungeon Crawlers Radio

UtahFM, Utah’s only internet community radio station, recently picked up a brand new show on Monday nights called “Dungeon Crawlers Radio”. A three hour program dedicated to all things geek, covering topics like role playing, cosplay, literature and other subject that some shows simply graze over. The three men behind it recently sat down and chatted with Gavin Sheehan of City Weekly fame about their show and their take on local geekatiude.

Gavin’s Underground interview with Dungeon Crawlers Radio

Gavin: Why did you choose to take the show to UtahFM rather than KRCL or KWCR?

Revan: Originally I had pitched the idea to the radio station I worked for but they wouldn’t do it. We even offered to do the show for free just for the experience and still they declined. Luckily a good friend of mine who also worked for the same radio station. Drew Carillo, host of “Utah Caffiene” which is on after our show called me up one day and said, “Hey I just got on board with this great internet radio station. I know you’ve been wanting to get your show on air so you should check out their website and volunteer to get your show on the air.” The rest is history really. I was really persistent with the powers that be with UtahFM until we got our show on the air. Things worked out with UtahFM so we never checked into KRCL or KWCR because we got on the air, and our show hadn’t been received very well by traditional radio.

Gavin: How did you end up deciding to cover events, and what’s it been like doing shows from them?

Malak: It was a no brainer, Exposure! Flat out exposure. We figured that by doing as many events as possible we would gain a listener base and get us known.

Revan: Malak is right, we figured that the best way to get our name out there was to do events at the local gaming stores, conventions, expos, and local events. We’d like to attend other events and are always looking for future events we can be a part of.
