I've never seen radio as the minor leagues, where I'm just really preparing to be in the show that really counts, namely, television, which is, I think, what people often assume. I've never felt that way.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
But I also think it's up to the fan base to call in the radio stations and demand that the more mature artists be played as well.
Radio is the art form of sports casting. If you're any good, you can do a great job on radio.
I did radio back in the era when we did radio drama.
For years everyone looked toward the demise of radio when television came along. Before that, they thought talking movies might eliminate radio as well. But radio just keeps getting stronger.
The thing about radio is that it's got an intimate feel. What I like is that you don't have to give it your full attention - you can still do something else that the same time, whereas TV is all-enveloping: you have to sit there and pay attention to it, and give yourself over to it. You have to surrender to it, but you don't with radio.
I'm psyched-up when I do radio. I can reach hundreds of thousands of people in a market. And way psyched-up when I'm on television. For people not to take it seriously is foolish.
Radio stinks. The stations are making a lot of money, but they just aren't taking chances.
The state of radio is not great. It's like playing the lottery. The chances of hitting are mind boggling slim.
I've always loved radio. Television scares me, because I'm older.
When you get something like MTV, it's like regular television. You get it, and at first it's novel and brand new and then you watch every channel, every show. And then you become a little more selective and more selective, until ultimately... you wind up with a radio.
