Planet Radio

Planet Radio is a live radio station broadcasting from Frankfurt, Germany, and dedicated to Pop Dance Hits. Programming content: At the start of the station, advertising slogans like "Your parents will puke" were criticized. However, the provocative advertising messages brought the desired public attention to the station. Well-known presenters in the early years included Rob Green, Corinna Riti, Minou Wittich (now hr3), and Lars-Christian Karde (now MDR Jump). In the first months, the youth station advertised with a Maximum Music Guarantee, where unfulfilled promises led to raffling off a pound of music CDs. The news was presented in a relatively unconventional way during the first months of broadcasting. The short news segments were monothematic and structured with "interested" questions from the presenter. After a few months, the daily chart show Hottest was added to the program. The show focused on charts from the USA, the UK, Germany, and specially created charts based on listeners' song requests. The house club hottest format was discontinued in June 2006 after more than six years and replaced by nightwax, which has released eight mix samplers so far. The format includes a four-hour deep house and chill-out show running until Sunday morning, creating a club music segment. Current presenters include Daniela Döring-Steinitz (show: Dani ist dran), Deniz Gencler (Deniz am Vormittag), Christian Max Franke, Hans Blomberg (Hans Blomberg Show), and Mark Schepp (Dein Sonntag Mittag mit dem Schepp), Aisha Buckman (Aisha am Nachmittag), and Mark (Trendscout and Nightwax). The morning show Franzen und Boomchica Leni - Die Morningshow is hosted by Daniel Franzen and Anna-Lena Pfaff. The slogan of the morning show is: "Die sind echt so!". The current station voice is Simone Reuthal.
