Independent involved in chap’s radio broadcast - stimulating stuff (11)

I believe the answer is:

aphrodisiac

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'stimulating stuff' is the definition.
'aphrodisiac' can be an answer for 'stimulating' (thesaurus). I am unsure of the 'stuff' bit.

'independent involved in chap's radio broadcast' is the wordplay.
'independent' becomes 'i'.
'involved in' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'broadcast' indicates an anagram.
'chaps'+'radio'='chapsradio'
'chapsradio' with letters rearranged gives 'aphrodsiac'.
'i' put inside 'aphrodsiac' is 'APHRODISIAC'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for aphrodisiac that I've seen before include "Substance or activity stimulating carnal desire" , "Desire-stimulating food" , "Love potion" , "Something that stimulates desire" , "the other driver" .)
