In this episode, Darwin and Cat mourn the slow, cringeworthy death of commercial radio—once a cultural cornerstone, now a relic of corporate bloat, fake “local” flavor, and DJs with more ego than insight. With their signature comedy and real-life stories (including Cat driving into a Mexican parade and Darwin’s traumatizing encounter with Aqua-Net), they peel back the curtain on how the industry sold its soul. But it’s not all doom and gloom. Darwin and Cat share bold ideas for what radio could be, if anyone had the guts to try something new. This episode is for anyone who’s ever yelled at their car stereo and thought, ‘Holy hell – radio blows!’
