Talk radio is a type of radio programming that focuses on discussions and conversations about various topics, including politics, current events, and social issues. Unlike music radio, talk radio features hosts who engage with listeners through phone calls, interviews, and debates, allowing for a more interactive experience. Listeners can tune in to hear different perspectives and opinions, often from well-known figures or experts in specific fields. Popular talk radio shows may feature hosts like Rush Limbaugh or Howard Stern, who have built large audiences by discussing controversial and engaging subjects.
