  • To Stream or Not to Stream? That is the Question
    There is no doubt that the times are changing and, as they do, the way we enjoy radio is changing. This theme has been repeated again and again in discussions inside and outside the industry, including many previous episodes of this podcast. And yet, there are still some who are restistant to the very idea of a radio station streaming its content. In fact, you might be familiar with one of them. So what are the pros and cons of streaming? How important is it in the grand scheme of content delivery? Also, Americans watched events unfold on January 6 that we thought we would never see, as a group of rioters breached the walls of the Capitol and created chaos on the floors of the House and Senate as Congress sought to certify the results of November's election. How did radio do at covering this breaking story, and how did broadcasters react when they learned that the people committing the violence may have been members of their audience? That and more on this week's episode.

  • No Bones About It!
    Contrary to popular belief, the RCL crew aren't broadcasting experts. We're not industry insiders or professionals. We didn't go to school for this... well, maybe Ashley did, but she's just one. We're not even paid to do this. So what qualifies us to talk about radio on a podcast? Well, nothing really, except that we're a bunch of radio freaks. Radio freaks are a rare breed—often misunderstood, sometimes marginalized. So how did we become these strange specimens of humanity? Preston, Jamie and Ashley share their stories. Chris has been dealing with a lot of health issues and was out this week, which is why this episode is delayed in being published, but don't worry; you'll hear his story on the next episode. Also, Bobby Bones is now possibly the most recognized voice in country radio. But he wasn't always that successful—not in the least. Jamie, Preston and Ashley talk about Bobby's inspiring story and what it teaches us.
