Coin Talk Radio show

Hello all, I was thinking about the state of the hobby and occurred to me that a Coin talk radio show with a extremely well versed host would spur the general public. The public would call in asking questions about rarity, mintage, value, history, etc. Not a coin sales show. More of a history show. Has this been done? Maybe the TPG's or our host could be "On the Radio" Just a thought.
Regards

    IMO, Numismatics is a VISUAL hobby, audio only goes so far as narration goes. I may be missing something.

    It funny to hear one argument about how to bring in YN to the hobby and have another talking about coin radio. I wonder how may YN have listened to AM radio or even know what AM and FM actually mean.....

    Although radio still commands large audiences, without the visuals, I think interest would wither rather quickly. JMO... Cheers, RickO

    Coinshowradio has been up and running for a while. Couple of members of the Cointalk forum started it. One was a dealer that has an account here. I haven't listened in a couple years but if I remember correctly it is more of a podcast than a radio show.
    They have a player link on CT if anyone wanted to hear it.

    The podcast I subscribe to is called "The Coin Show" if you want to try it. I have listened on occasion and it can be interesting.
