Show Notes
Eric, Jennifer and Paul reconvene to catch up on all that is news to us in the worlds of radio and sound. The FCC just unanimously approved all-digital operation on the AM band, while commercial radio – born on the AM band – celebrates its centennial. But keep in mind that broadcast radio is older than that first commodified broadcast.
We also reflect on the very first virtual Grassroots Radio Conference and the history of radio dealing with earlier epidemics.
