On this week's show we look into why terrestrial radio stations are disappearing. We also read your emails and take a look at the news. News: LG reveals US pricing for 2026 C6 and G6 OLED TVs 19 Years Ago This Month, Apple Released the Apple TV Other: Matter Products for Professionals Why are Radio Stations Disappearing? A growing number of commercial AM and FM radio stations in the US are shutting down or surrendering their licenses. Over the past decade through late 2025, about 342 AM stations disappeared—a 7% drop—while commercial FM stations fell by 112, or roughly 2%. This decline stems from shrinking ad revenue, fierce competition from streaming services and podcasts, and changing listener habits, especially among younger people who prefer on-demand audio. Many owners face financial strain, leading to closures of underperforming signals, with one major radio group even declaring bankruptcy recently. AM stations suffer extra challenges like signal interference and new cars skipping AM tuners. While noncommercial FM stations are actually growing, the trend signals trouble for traditional over-the-air commercial radio, potentially reducing local broadcasting in communities. Reasons for the shift: Declining Advertising Revenue - Commercial radio (especially in smaller markets) face shrinking spot ad revenue with national and local ad markets declining as well. Cumulus shut down underperforming stations to cut costs and avoid bankruptcy. High operational expenses (utilities, maintenance, talent) make some stations unviable. Shift Away from AM Radio - The AM band has seen the most closures. In 2024, the U.S. lost 61 AM stations; trends continued into 2025–2026 with further declines down to around 4,300–4,400 licensed AM stations. Reasons include: Poor sound quality (static, interference from electronics/EVs). Competition from clearer FM, streaming, podcasts, and satellite radio. High costs and low listenership/confidence in the band. Some stations surrender licenses due to expensive repairs or lack of viability. Electric vehicles removing AM tuners (due to motor interference) has accelerated concerns about access. FM has been more stable or growing in noncommercial/religious sectors, but commercial FM has also seen some losses. Competition from Digital Alternatives - Traditional radio listenership has declined due to Podcasts, streaming services (Pandora, Spotify, Apple Music), and on-demand audio drawing audiences away—especially younger listeners. Changes in commuting patterns post-COVID reduced in-car radio listening. With fewer daily commuters there are less people tuning into morning drive time radio shows. The rise of digital platforms has fragmented audiences and ad dollars.

The community radio station 88.1 KDHX was a lifeline for eclectic, locally curated music in the St. Louis area — until it was torn apart by battles over diversity, accountability and the essence of the station's identity. It went off the air and its broadcast license was sold to the highest bidder in 2025. In Part 2 of our special report “KDHX: How a radio station unravelled,” we examine how KDHX leaders pushed through a controversial sale in the face of widespread community opposition — and what lessons can be learned from the differing public reactions to the station's 2019 and 2023 controversies. We also witness the birth of "a new era for music in St. Louis."

WILLIAM RANDOLPH HEARST'S OPPOSITION TO FDR Colleague David Pietrusza. Media tycoon William Randolph Hearst, who controls a vast network of newspapers and radio stations, turns against Roosevelt as the New Deal moves left. Hearst's reputation suffers after a controversial 1934 meeting with Hitler, which accelerates his decline in popularity. By 1936, Roosevelt views Hearst and the wealthy "economic royalists" as political targets. In a conversation with an intermediary, Roosevelt jokes about throwing millionaires to the wolves, further inflaming Hearst. Consequently, the publisher commits his media empire to unseating the President, seeking a Republican candidate to support. NUMBER 51936 BRITISH ARMY AT THE JAFFA GATE FOR THE TURMOIL IN PALESTINE

THE POWER AND DECLINE OF WILLIAM RANDOLPH HEARST Colleague David Pietrusza. Media magnate William Randolph Hearst, who controlled a vast empire of newspapers and radio stations, shifted from a Rooseveltsupporter in 1932 to a fierce critic by 1936. Hearst's reputation suffered after a controversial meeting with Adolf Hitler, which he attempted to downplay, but which accelerated his decline in popularity. Roosevelt, concerned about "crackpot ideas" and opposition from the wealthy, attempted to neutralize Hearst through intermediaries. However, the President's "soak the rich" tax policies deeply angered Hearst, leading the publisher to order his income reduced to avoid taxes and solidifying his break with FDR. NUMBER 5
