Frasier

All great shows that revolved around the radio business. Sadly, the radio business is dying or close to death. With Ipads and MP3's, internet, etc...The radio business has been killed off. Frasier most likely will be the final show to revolve around a radio station. Just thought I'd throw that out there.

Well I don't know... that's probably true of music radio, but talk radio is still pretty widespread. I know a lot of people who listen to NPR. According to this article, NPR pulls in 27 million listeners a week and that number grew in 2011. :)

I know I've mentioned this before but there really is an 780AM radio station and I have it programmed in my car. Usually it's nothing but dead air but lately I've been able to pick up very faint voices and music. I still think they should have that station play clips of stuff they did on Frasier (the radio stuff). How hilarious would that be? I'd listen to it all the time!
