When I was in radio people marveled at how easy my job was. “You just sit there and play records”. Well, they got two parts of the job right.

Three rules...
1) Never underestimate the complexity of someone else's job.
2) Never underestimate how tediously boring it will become if they start to tell you about it.
3) Nobody cares.

i once tried to describe my radio job to a rather elderly priest. monsignor harry jerome (RIP) replied, "so, you play records and make pithy comments?"
yes. yes, that's about right.

No disrespect to any recovering DJs out there (because you were only giving the public what they wanted)... but my take would have been, "so, you play records and make banal comments?"

The late Ray Sawyer from Dr Hook once attempted an impression of a US radio "jock"

Highlighting your eyebrows is very Hollywood.
