Hey Radio, This is it.

Hey Radio, This is it.

Matt shares a few thoughts about the opportunity ahead for radio in the age of Corona Virus.

It's been nearly 20 years since radio has had to shift into crisis mode. The Corona Virus or COVID-19 has arrived and broadcasters find themselves having to write rules, redo formats, get more information sourced, while dealing with staffs that have children coming home and everyone faced with the challenge of working from home. In this episode, I spoke about the importance of working from home, and get down to the nitty gritty of what it means to be a broadcaster during a pandemic.

Here’s the article from Perry Michael Simon I was talking about.

I also made made mention of the Jacobs Media one which is coming up on March 26, always an important survey because it really serves as radio's report card.

The Infinite Dial Study was released March 19th by Edison Research. You can get a copy here.

Also Coleman Insights has this very handy list of tips.
