American radio wanting shows (5)
I believe the answer is:
iowan
'american' is the definition.
(someone from Iowa)
'radio wanting shows' is the wordplay.
'shows' indicates a hidden word.
'IOWAN' is hidden within 'radio wanting'.
(Other definitions for iowan that I've seen before include "From Des Moines, say?" , "Statesman" , "US resident" , "One from Des Moines perhaps" , "American" .)
