WHY YOU DON’T NEED TO PREPARE FOR YOUR RADIO SHOW

Recently I’ve offered tips on how to improve your radio show.

“But Dan, do I really have to do all that work — show prep, constantly striving to improve?”

Of course not.

I’ve said it many times before: Radio is the easiest thing in the world to do badly.

Anybody can do that. Including you.

And a lot more rewarding.

And a lot more fun.
