Linda Byrd is my boss, and a friend that I have known for a very long time. She is an impressive woman who is also one of the highest ranking and most powerful people in all of IHeart Radio. She took the time out of her crazy busy schedule to answer all (almost) of my questions. She is basically a historian of radio & a true story of success in this wild world of radio.
