Radio Free Burning Man's staff is varied and eclectic. The station attracts people through the internet, through the Burning Man organization, and on site. People gravitate to the station and are drawn to being on the radio. Most of the staff have prior radio or broadcast experience, usually with college and non-commercial radio. They all share a common interest in making this station look, sound, and be great.

Staff meetings are held daily where the next 24-hour shift schedule is decided by a consensus of the group. At station meetings other topics are also discussed including daily chores, feelings about the event and the prior day's broadcasting, current events around Black Rock City, and to meet people who come to the meetings to talk to the station about programming and general issues. Daily meetings are vibrant, procedural, boring and hung-over all at the same time.
