What has historically survived? Radio. And, AM radio "is the foundation of the national emergency response system," Craig Fugate, the FEMA director during the Obama Administration, reminds us.

With much discussion about AM radio's removal from electric vehicles and a sudden response to save AM from across the industry, Fugate shares why AM "is such an interesting communication and warning system" that proves to be more resilient than a smartphone or television in this InFOCUS Podcast, presented by dot.FM. "You don't have to get a lot of stations to serve as a primary entry point when you use AM radio," Fugate says.
