Description

Radio is magic. If you are listening to these words you most likely agree. But why? Why is radio such a magical medium? It may have something to do with the fact that you must bring more of yourself to it: unlike television, there is no picture. So you must lean in, fill in the blanks with your own imagery, and consequently become more invested in it. The voices of our favorite radio personalities become so familiar to us. We live in their folds and crevices, their lilts and slight accents, and feel we know them.
