The students hosted their first live radio show on February 19, 2020. The show was a great success, and we wanted to ensure that those who missed the live broadcast had a chance to listen to it.

The radio show featured discussions on a wide range of topics relevant to today’s teenagers, including relationships, toxic people, and much more.  The Co-Hosts shared some valuable insights and perspectives that were well-received by our listeners.

We appreciate your continued support and interest in our show, and we look forward to hearing your feedback. Please feel free to reach out to us @teentakeovershow on Instagram with any questions or comments you may have.

The show is produced by students in the Journalism and Media academic track at Weaver High School.  Helping the students launch the show have been WQTQ-FM’s Tom Smith and Connie Coles, and ReadyCT Program Manager for the Journalism and Media Track, Oshane Thorpe.
