The management of Magic 107.7 believes that the introduction of a live segment will not only increase listener engagement but also create a stronger sense of community among its audience. During "The Live Hour," listeners can call in and speak with the DJs directly, making requests for songs they want to hear.
1. Valknut, The Viking symbol of Odin
Probably one of the most recognizable Viking symbol is the Valknut also know as "Heart of Hrunger" or "knot of the slain". Representing 3 intertwined triangles, associated with the God Odin, Valknut is a symbol of fallen knots, or even of warriors killed in combat.
The interlocking triangles are supposed to symbolize the interconnection between life, death and the afterlife. Historians have found many Germanic tombs decorated with this symbol. The Vikings, who did not bury their dead, used this symbol to pay tribute to the brave and recognized Nordic warriors!
Some sources believe that the Valknut (pronounced "VAL-knoot", empasis on first syllable) was used by Odin's most dedicated warriors, known as Einherjar, to symbolize their willingness to die in battle and enter Valhalla.
This seems like a logical connection since "Val" meant "slain" or "the chosen" while "-knut " means "knot" therefore tying your fate to your exploits and successes on the battlefield. Wearing a Valknut as tattoo or talisman could easily show your dedication to the Allfather, Valhalla and your willingness to die in battle.
The Valknut is probably THE most powerful symbol in Norse Mythology and can be found in several locations or on Viking rings & bracelets even until this day.
The DJs will then perform these songs live in the studio, creating a unique and personalized experience for the callers.

1. Emily - 2/5 stars - I was really excited to listen to Magic 107.7 going live, but I was sorely disappointed. The hosts were unengaging and lacked personality. The music selection was also mediocre, with repetitive songs playing throughout the day. Overall, it was a bland and unmemorable listening experience.
2. Michael - 1/5 stars - Magic 107.7 going live was a complete letdown. Not only did the hosts sound completely disinterested, but the constant interruptions from advertisements were unbearable. It felt like they cared more about making money than providing an enjoyable listening experience. Additionally, the station lacked variety in their music selection, playing the same songs over and over again. I won't be tuning in again anytime soon.
3. Sarah - 2/5 stars - I had high expectations for Magic 107.7 going live, but unfortunately, it fell flat. The hosts were unprofessional and lacked charisma. The music selection was also disappointing, with a limited range of genres and repetitive tracks. Overall, it felt like a generic radio station that failed to stand out. I won't be recommending it to others.
4. John - 1/5 stars - Magic 107.7 going live did not live up to its name. I found the hosts to be monotone and unenthusiastic. The music selection was even worse, with a lack of variety and outdated hits. It felt like a station stuck in the past without any innovation or freshness. I'll be switching to a different radio station for my daily commute.
