There use to be a radio Ventriloquist!!!!! It was only when he tried to transfer to TV that his career failed, as people started to see how bad he was.
Radio is an amazing medium, you can do things on radio that no other medium would allow. Think about it. Other mediums have an audience that sit there saying so go on then ENTERTAIN me. Radio is used is a completely different manner. 90% of it's audience are doing other things & have it there as company.
Unlike TV the audience do not tune away during adverts. They do not decide to take a toilet break or go to the bar if it's not totally entertaining to them. They continue to do what they are doing with the radio on...It really is very unique.
Radio is also far more two way, than ever TV can be. I have been involved in many different types of radio down the years, some legal, some not. On some I have done programming on many engineering & even where all I have done is in the background, I have always received letters & at times those letters have come from people way outside of the area the transmitters have reached.
