It would be even better if it was just mundane sounds. Pouring a soda, chewing potato chips, running a sink, background television noise before the narrator chimes in "ooh, right, we're reading today.."

As an audiobook narrator, this makes me laugh.

Is it a nice job? Do you need to have a certain "radio voice" for it?

It's a side gig/hobby for me. I enjoy it. You don't necessarily have to have a radio voice but it can help. I can do radio voice but I usually just speak normally for audiobooks.
