I still do listen to the radio to discover new music, not live shows though but catch-up episodes. It's definitely worth it, yes some of the songs might not be to my taste but at least you get the chance to make that determination yourself and you get exposed to different stuff.

In my experience the algorithmic recommendation systems don't do this, I mean they might throw you a wildcard in here or there but I tend to find they overfit on some niche and it just becomes tiresome, and you don't get the commentary from the DJ who might add something like describing who the artist is, what the song's name is and maybe some flavour on the DJs interactions with the artist over time.
