I did radio back in the era when we did radio drama.

I've always been fascinated with radio and broadcasting. I did fake radio shows as a kid, where I was a DJ and stuff like that.

If you had a good radio - and everybody did in those days - you could find it.

When I was a kid, there was so much talent outside of recorded music.

My mother had a radio show - a Barbara Walters type of gal and was very successful for about 20-some years on a radio station.

I had no allusions of radio success. I just loved being in studios. I was having fun and in that sense I now feel a lot like I did when I did that record.

My parents played the radio, but music was never an obsession or something that I thought I could call a career.

Radio is the art form of sports casting. If you're any good, you can do a great job on radio.

I'd always fought against presenting radio really, because my father was a radio DJ in Australia. He's just recently retired. And I kind of didn't want to follow in his footsteps. But I suppose, as we all find as we become older, to some extent we do all become our parents.

Basically, radio hasn't changed over the years. Despite all the technical improvements, it still boils down to a man or a woman and a microphone, playing music, sharing stories, talking about issues - communicating with an audience.
