Weird private radio hosts bringing little comfort? (5)
I believe the answer is:
crumb
'little comfort?' is the definition.
(as in 'a few crumbs of comfort')
'weird private radio hosts' is the wordplay.
'weird' becomes 'rum' (rum can mean strange).
'private radio' becomes 'CB' (citizens band radio).
'hosts' indicates putting letters inside (inserted letters are welcomed or hosted).
'rum' inserted within 'cb' is 'CRUMB'.
'bringing' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for crumb that I've seen before include "A tiny bit of bread" , "Small morsel" , "Dry morsel" , "Flake of bread" , "Very small quantity of something, especially food" .)
