By Fred Jacobs | June 23, 2025

During this economically unstable period in time, many companies are struggling to figure out what’s most important. One variable that often is ignored is employee burnout. And much of it is caused by previous workforce purges. A new story addresses how one of the most successful companies in the world is addressing the problem. And in support, a new research study suggests burnout is costing companies more than they’re saving by instituting those RIFs in the first place. Check it out.

Radio And The Power Of The Parasocial

By Fred Jacobs | June 18, 2025

Seemingly every day in the trades we read about research studies trying to prove the value and impact of broadcast radio. In today’s post, ironically, it’s the research maven with a “real-life story about broadcast radio’s effectiveness. Whether it’s motivating the locals to show up at an auto dealership to spin the prize wheel, listen to a podcast, or vote for a candidate in an election, radio (still) works.

By Fred Jacobs | June 17, 2025

When you consider how media platforms have evolved over the past couple decades, the one that has perhaps moved at the highest rate of speed is dashboard entertainment.

By Fred Jacobs | June 16, 2025

Father’s Day 2025 is now in the books. But in today’s post, I get a bit personal, talking about my DAD, the guy who had so much influence over me and my brothers, our careers, and our lives.

It’s The Christian (Radio) Thing To Do

By Fred Jacobs | June 3, 2025

I’m back from Momentum 25, the annual conference put on by the Christian Music Broadcasters. As is the case year after year, 700 attendees made the trek to steamy Orlando to learn, share, commune, worship, and experience why this radio format is in the process of celebrating some of its best days ever at a time when the entire industry is feeling the heat. What’s working and why? And how can radio broadcasters in other disciplines learn from the Christian phenomenon? I’ve got those answers for you. Just click “READ MORE” below.

Is It Time For Radio to WAKE UP?!

By Fred Jacobs | June 1, 2025

For a half century, I’ve conducted research designed to better understand the attitudes, perceptions, and behaviors of the radio listening audience. Some studies address highly complex questions where the answers may be elusive. But others are fundamental and basic questions that are easy to ask and answer. And yet most radio programmers don’t know these essential truths, even if they’ve been working at the same station a decade or more. You may know your cume, your time-spent listening, and even the gender, age, and location of that “heavy deep” panelist in your metro, but do you know the answer to this morning’s simple question? Take my challenge and click “READ MORE” below.
