Bob Dylan’s April Fool's Day Prank, The Hail Mary Project, And Where To For ABC Radio?

If you want to know the exact moment legacy radio started to feel its age, it might have been when a major Australian station began giving away lacy doilies.

In the latest episode of On The Record, Michael Mackenzie and Brian Wise—veterans with a combined 70 years behind the mic—stage a fascinating "in-house" intervention for the medium they love (and occasionally despair over).

Joined by global "radio futurologist" James Cridland, the trio moved from a high-tech April Fool’s hoax involving Bob Dylan to a deep-tissue analysis of why the ABC is shedding listeners while community radio and podcasts are booming.
