Taking on a host position on a radio show is no easy job -- especially if you're succeeding someone else. It's a lot of work, as it is often recorded more than once a week, and you have to entertain fans and listeners with only audio and no visuals. Despite that, these stars went above and beyond and have provided listeners ear candy for quite a long time. Though radio shows are often underlooked, you can also find clips with English subtitles on Youtube -- on your way home, or if you want something mellow, make sure to check them out!
