>Why would I let someone else dictate what I listen to when there's plenty of on-demand content available 24/7?

To be fair there's still good radio out there and not even just on the internet. The really commercial stuff on most of the FM band is tedious but personally I really love people who are passionate about music play me things I might not have heard before. Things like BBC Radio Six Music and the former offshore pirate Radio Caroline are both pretty good in this regard.

A good radio DJ can create a far more personal and human experience than just waiting for Spotify's algorithm to give you something vaguely related.

Yes. There is good stuff out there. I often go for live radio as a medium of discovery but within some well defined boundaries. I might listen to classical music or a jazz station and discover new artists or new interpretations within a genre that I already like. I might listen to a some talkshows in the hope that I might discover something interesting that was outside of my radar.
