Rick what advice would you give someone who wants to break into the radio business?
Don't no, no. My advice is, that its the most fun in the world. The broadcast is just exploding with opportunities. You have internet, you have broadband, you have satellite, of course you have what you call terrestrial radio which is like moving 93.9. and theres so many opportunities. Heres what I recommend: Do a morning show. If you can force yourself to get up early its the most fun because you have people in their cars, they're just starting their days its the best feeling you can ever have and I started when I was 17 years old and I still love it everyday.
