““Radio is like food. You spend days and months and hours gathering the ingredients, cutting, mixing, making it cook. The minute it hits air/the table, it’s gone – but it’s transformed. The memory of it lingers, almost like a dream.” – The Kitchen Sisters (Nikki Silva and Davia Nelson, independent radio producers)”
