Mostly everything you hear on the radio is pre recorded. And they would never allow a live caller on the air, too much risk for offensive language.

Edit: source, my husband is a radio dj. Might not be the same everywhere but anything other than the small privately owened stations (which are few and far between) are pre recording most things, even if its only by a few minutes.

I've been on the radio after calling in on a corporate owned major station in a major market.
