please don't be so ignorant and obtuse.

The radio waves are converted to sound waves via a transducer (in this case a radio reciever) and vice versa (inthis case a transmitter)

You can't actually hear radio waves as such.

Light = EM radiation
Radio waves = EM radiation
Sound = EM radiation

You can't hear light though can you? but you can transmit sound via light in much the same way as radio waves.

The EM radiation is merely modulated so that it can travel a given distance. It is de-modulated at the other end.

Light and radio waves are merely the carriers of the sound.
