here's what our affiliates say about MORNING SIDEKICK

"Morning Sidekick is something I know I can depend on for great prep. It gets into the bits quickly and the punch lines Sidekick provides are just plain funny. When you can find a prep service that fits your personality and is consistently on target - then you've really got a valuable tool to help you win! Morning Sidekick has been helping us win for years."

Mark Bolger

"I personally think that over the years, you have only gotten better and better with all that effort going toward us, the affiliates. I love every part of the new design and think even the writing has improved! If you are looking for a prep service that will make you sound like you know what's going on AND have a sense of humor about it - get Morning Sidekick. If you don't ... well, don't blame me that your ratings suck."

Lori Voornas

"I THOUGHT I did a morning show - then I subscribed to Morning Sidekick. NOW I do a morning show! I love the punch lines and the MP3 sound bites. Very creative. I get many listeners asking me if I stay up all night thinking this stuff up. I DON'T tell them that I sleep all night and someone ELSE stays up all night thinking it up. It's a great - actually a MUST service. Thanks!"

Rick Foster
WDEA
Ellsworth, ME

"I've used your material in Omaha, Indianapolis, worldwide on my syndicated show, ‘Rock N' Roll Rewind’, and now, out here in the Caribbean on St. Croix. What a relief it is to know that the best humor and material is sitting in my e-mailbox when I step into the station each morning. Thanks for being there!"

”If any of my friends in radio were looking for a prep service, I would tell them that Morning Sidkeick is absolutely essential (unless they were in my market!!!)”

thanks
for taking a look at MORNING SIDEKICK. We're a little different than most radio comedy services. We specialize in clever and satirical comedy that scores big in personality radio across all formats. And we're one of the few major comedy services left that hasn't been gobbled up by a giant media corporation. Which means we're uniquely positioned to listen and respond to our affiliates. Maybe that's why they stay with us year after year!
new and improved
In this visitors area you'll find samples of our daily show prep and mp3 audio comedy, as well as material in our huge comedy archives which you'll have access to when you subscribe. MORNING SIDEKICK has recently made some major improvements: new features, easier content delivery, friendlier formatting. If you’re checking us out for the first time, you’ll be amazed at MORNING SIDEKICK’s genuine humor and breadth of useable material. If you’re taking a second look, we hope you’ll give our many new features a try. The entire service – the daily show prep, the recorded comedy – is delivered on-line, so it’s all available to you where you are: in the studio. So we can now bring you more material, and more topical material.
