Why Community Radio Still Matters in a Disposable Media World with Michael Rosenberg Part 2
Download MP3The Authentic Life You're Already Ready For | Michael Rosenberg
In this episode of Say It Anyway, James Ferrigno sits down with Michael Rosenberg, longtime radio DJ, educator, and host of Hell’s Kitchen Radio on Radio Valencia.
Together they unpack the realities of running a community radio station: dues, fundraising, outreach, youth engagement, and the challenge of inspiring real participation beyond simply “having a great show.” Michael shares Radio Valencia’s sustainability philosophy, why youth energy can spark momentum, and how collaboration across the local music ecosystem keeps culture alive.
The conversation expands into music discovery, authenticity, and media literacy — from crate digging and liner notes to Shazam, research skills, and the dangers of lowest-common-denominator media. Michael reflects on the value of healthy risk-taking, inclusion, mindfulness, and why discovering music — new and old — remains a lifelong practice.
This episode is a love letter to independent media, authentic art, and the people who keep culture moving forward.
