Do you listen to live radio anymore?

[lynxstch]

The only radio I will listen to is solid talk radio. What is the show you enjoy? I'd love to search then out online and give the show a listen. Thanks!

It's called the Big D and Bubba show. One of our local stations is 100.1 The Wolf. They are hilarious! You can also look them up on their you tube podcasts at --bigdandbubba podcast

I have a clock radio on my work desk and it's on most of the day; I turn it off when I have a conference call. And in the car we always have the radio on except for a couple trips when we listen to specific CDs.

I only listen to the radio in the car. If I'm doing a longer trip, I'll plug in my ipod (Yes, I still have mine and use it regularly) and listen to my own music. With the radio, I can't stand hearing the same 10-15 songs and commercials. Apparently I'm the only one in my friend group that still does. Everyone else just plugs in their phone and listens to Spotify.

I'll listen in the car. I'll do terrestrial radio when within reception distance of my "home" area, and then satellite radio when reception goes out (or if the commercials go on too long). I'll listen to podcasts when taking walks.

No usb thingy to plug in my phone.

My old car was the same. You can get a BT radio transmitter for your car. You connect your phone to it via BT, then it transmits on a radio frequency that you pick up on your car radio.

Thank you. I've found lots of great shows across the country. I'll give them a shot this morning!

I picked one of those up for my old car and it worked great. Relatively inexpensive, too, and it was perfect for my needs. Great suggestion.

I love my iPod, although I use it solely for podcasts at this point.

Their show is the 5-10 am slot, but you can usually see the podcasts of the days show within 20 minutes of the show--Let me know what you think if you listen!

I mostly listen to Sirius but will flip to local stations in the car from time to time. When I used to commute regularly, I’d listen to catch traffic and news briefs, but since I now work from home, no need.

Christmas music streams online 365 days a year. How excited could you really be?

But who wants to listen to Christmas music all year? Not me. It’s such overkill. I prefer not hearing it until after Thanksgiving. The funny thing is, it starts so early and then on Dec. 26th, gets switched off immediately. I would rather they start later but continue to play it until New Year’s. We typically have extended holiday season celebrations, visiting with relatives and friends, out of town college students and young adults, etc. AFTER Christmas. You know, the 12 days and all.

I listen to the local NPR station when I'm in the car, but that's for extremely short time periods. Like 5-15 minutes, and not even every day. At home I have a huge music colledtion, plus Amazon Prime streaming.

 

[jujubiee4]

Yes! Mostly because I have echo devices in every room in the house. I mostly listed
to news. I noticed in the morning my husband likes to listen to sports talk while he
gets ready. One of my kids likes talk radio in the morning (days events).

I also listen in the car.

 

[prairie_girl]

No live radio. I’ve been getting into podcasts lately so when I decide to listen to something, that’s what I’m going for lately.

 

[TippyThomas]

I listen to podcasts and audiobooks thru bluetooth. I haven't listened to regular radio in years.

 

[E&Cmom]

Only in the car.

Never said it was right. Just that it's an option. Kinda takes the "special" away from changing formats to all-Christmas.

Yikes... sitting through the insufferable country music during their music breaks is going to be tough. But I'll try to listen to the banter and see how it goes.

Yes - I listen to The Catholic Channel, XM channel 129, every day.

Sorry, but I only listen to country music. Guess I forgot to add that it was a country station~

The Catholic Channel

I listen to Lino Rulli just about every day!
