A radio producer is in charge of producing a radio programme. Several diverse job descriptions are covered by the job title. A radio show or feature is directed and managed by content producers or executive producers.
Radio presenter Nashawn George Marenga says "radio isn't as simple as we might make it out to be. People truly have a tendency to believe that all we do is click stop, speak, and cue music. It's not really that easy.

The selection of the material and the delivery method, the choice of excellent music, utilising a variety of knobs and buttons, etc. are just a few of the many factors that go into producing a radio programme that helps grow an audience. We simply don't sit back and unwind, even during the shows. There is constant activity."

According to Nashawn, simply thinking about making someone smile, feel good, and be motivated is a great part of his job.
The greatest feeling, though, is when listeners share their experiences with him.
Feedback from his family and friends is second only to that. "In terms of my career, it's been a truly wonderful 13 years."
