Summary
Rob Hopkins - aka "Radio Rob" has used his DIY ethos to become a pioneering force in community broadcasting and open-source innovation in Canada's North. He's the founder of Yukon community stations CJUC Whitehorse and the low-power CFET-FM in Tagish, Yukon, as well as OpenBroadcaster - a web-based, open-source system to run community radio and TV broadcast transmitters. He joins us on Broadcast Dialogue - The Podcast ahead of World Radio Day 2026 , with this year's theme " AI and radio ," underscored by the tagline "AI is a tool, not a voice." We talk to Hopkins - who was named to Yukon's Hall of Innovators last year - about his work with Indigenous communities, local radio's enduring ability to connect, and how OpenBroadcaster is using AI. OpenBroadcaster will host their World Radio Day online event - An Insightful Look at Radio & Artificial Intelligence - beginning at 2 p.m. Yukon time on Friday, Feb. 13.
