Show notes
A local show is only as good as its guest pipeline. Malik helps June define what makes a strong nomination: someone doing specific work, a story with stakes, and a practical reason neighbors should hear it.
The episode introduces the nomination form and explains why Main Street Signal says no to pure promotion.
What neighbors can use
- Guest nominations need criteria or the show becomes a bulletin board
- The strongest local stories have a useful next step
- Promotion works better when it is attached to service
