Abstract: A personalized radio system includes a electronic device having a wireless chip and a recorder in communication with a data storage device; the wireless chip to scan for radio waves; a control system to obtain user preferences associated with audio data and utilize algorithms to create key points associated with the user preferences; and a queue of audio recordings accessible via the electronic device; the control system compares the key points associated with user preferences with the metadata of the radio waves to match the key points with one or more digital identifiers of the metadata; the control system facilitates recording of audio data having one or more digital identifiers that match the key points onto the data storage device and into the queue such that the audio data can be played back a single time before being removed from the queue and data storage device.
