Some studios I worked in had windows, some didn't.  I thought windows were stupid...ruined the acoustics!

LOL.  What acoustics?  We had a fake  ....well I can't remember what it was called, a thingie that could make your voice sound deeper on the mic.  It was like a Bert Parks.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

We were an FM station.  Low watts. If you lived a mile away it was buffering before buffering was a thing.
