ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Radio premium

Have you ever seen a toy or a game that comes with extra special things that you can only get if you buy the toy or game? Like a secret character or a fancy accessory that not everyone has? Well, sometimes on the radio, they have something like that too called a premium.

A premium on the radio is like a special prize or gift that they give you if you do something special, like donate money or answer a tricky question. It's kind of like a thank you for doing something good. Premiums can be all sorts of things, like a special limited edition t-shirt or a set of stickers that you can't get anywhere else.

It's like if you go to a birthday party and the birthday kid gives you a goody bag with fun toys and candy inside. It's something extra special that not everyone gets, and it's a way for the radio host to say thank you for being a part of their show or doing something special.

So next time you listen to the radio and they mention a premium, just think of it like a special toy or prize that you get for doing something cool. And who doesn't love getting something special like that?
