Adding low volume background music

[ragincajun]

I want to do a short radio show for a sports league I'm in. What I'm trying to accomplish is this...

1. Record my show
2. Lay an mp3 clip on a loop behind my show for effect...but not to drown out the show itself.

I can record the show
I can put in the mp3 clip

I'm not sure how to:
1. Loop the mp3 clip to last for the duration of the show
2. Fade out the mp3 level so it's muted and a background sound behind the speaking part of the show

Hope that's clear. I just downloaded this today at a friends suggestion so still playing with it. Thanks in advance for any help.

Loop the mp3 clip to last for the duration of the show

The MP3 clip should be imported (into a new track) - "File menu > Import > Audio"
With the MP3 Clip track selected "Effect menu > Repeat" and enter the number of repeats required.

Fade out the mp3 level so it's muted and a background sound behind the speaking part of the show

Use the volume slider on the left side of the track, or "View menu > Mixer Board". (the mixer board is linked to the track sliders, so both methods produce exactly the same result).
