Answering a question that is coming in regularly:

What are the duties regarding co-hosting the Trumpet Warmup Show?
If that interests you, please keep reading.
If not please disregard.
JB

The Warmup Show happens every Monday morning. Viewership is in 30+ countries.

TA will be expected to go on air every Monday morning and host their own segment.
Segment hosting is to help build your own brand, to gain regular public speaking experience, to practice codifying and distilling your messages (great for interviews when applying for University positions), etc. Ideally your segment will tie into your dissertation/DMA project topic.

A recent show with some segment examples can be found here: https://www.facebook.com/ASUTrumpets/videos/540893449991013/

Timings, so you can navigate around and get an idea of how you might fit in:
The show starts at about 15 minutes in
-Buzzing starts at about 23 minutes in
-Comedy starts at about 30 minutes
-More buzzing at 34 minutes
-Trumpet Heroines at 41:40 min
-Yoga for Musicians at 47 min
-More Playing at 55 min
-The Multi-Cultural Trumpeter at about 1 hour
-News at 1:11
-Publications Place at 1:17

Below are some sample screen shots from segments:
