How traditional radio is evolving.
Mary Garner McGehee and Sage Tanguay from the University of Virginia's WTJU and Virginia Audio Collective visit the Continuing Studies podcast to explore the evolving role of radio and podcasting in higher education. In part one of this two part episode, they share how WTJU, with its storied past in the punk rock scene, has transformed into a dynamic podcasting hub, emphasizing the student-run station WXTJ, where DJs have the freedom to explore diverse music genres.
