Solution – testatrix
So the solution is a bit esoteric today. A testatrix is the female version of testator ie someone who is making a will and testament. That matches the "She's willing" part of the clue.
Then you can also get to "testatrix" from the rest of the clue.
Try = test
Adult = the abbreviation a
Jokes on radio = a word that sounds like a word that means jokes but isn't spelled that way = trix (sounds like tricks)
Test +a + trix = testatrix
The clue that "sounds like" is involved is "on the radio" ie heard not seen.
