Eric were you considering paying for a cohost?

I was approached before I left Japan and they wanted a figure. Had to decline because they wanted someone in the Japan timezone.

I would pay if I thought it would lead to something, I wanted quality talent, or if the other party did the production, etc.

Would love to hear from other people if they pay their cohosts

I can almost hear that funny mix of perplexed shock you get in your voice at times. hah
In my honest opinion, I'd be more willing to pay the producer before the co-host. Especially if the producer not only handles the technical side but also writes content and segments. Anyone who builds and researches content for the format deserves to be paid. Now on that same note, If your co-host brings out the best in your personality and makes for great radio, then you should at least buy the food and or beer before and or after the show.
