Since the 1990s, National Radio Day has been celebrated on August 20th to highlight the invention of radio and its contributions to our society. The radio is the first device that allowed for mass communication. Although the first commercial radio stations began broadcasting in the 1920s, there were many significant contributions that took place prior to this broadcast by various individuals. There contributions include the discovery of electromagnetic induction, electric conduction, and radio waves.

On Morning Energy, we are going to do our part to support National Radio Day by exploring the history of radio to include its historical and present benefits.

Join me, Renna Reddick Friday from 4 to 6 a.m. for a special musical journey about this topic! I am definitely looking forward to spending time with you on the airwaves and sharing your energy!!!
