The Radio Race is great way for storytellers of all experience levels to break out of their daily routines and make a four-minute audio piece overnight. Winners get a cash prize, plus other perks like a free year-long membership to AIR and PRX. You\u2019ll have just 24 hours to write, record and edit a four-minute nonfiction radio story. You can join as an individual or as a team of your creation. KCRW will air the top three winning pieces, and this time around, one team&#8217;s piece will be chosen to air on our newest podcast Nocturne. And remember: the Radio Race is more than just an overnight competition. It\u2019s an opportunity to produce the most original piece of radio anyone will hear in 2019.
