TWiRT 731 - Radio Network Engineering with Mitch Glider

TWiRT - This Week in Radio Tech - Podcast

What kind of “radio station” is on-the-air only twice per hour? How about CBS Radio News? With the precision of a watchmaker, the CBS Radio News network delivers news updates to hundreds of radio stations and millions of listeners. Mitch Glider is the Supervising Engineer at their headquarters on West 57th Street in New York City. Through the challenges of at-home news anchors (through the pandemic) and changes in technology, Mitch and just a few colleagues keep the audio and metadata correctly routed. In this episode, we’re learning about past, present, and future network radio operations. Mitch encourages engineers to “Respect the past, and embrace the future.”
