@Dove have you considered a career in Bobble Heading?

Happy early birthday, @Dove s.

I listen to terrestrial radio all the time. We still have a few great stations. WXRT 93.1 FM is the gold standard for good curated music content. We have a few other formula classic rock stations, but I don't tune into those much. We also have the coolest classical music station WFMT 98.7 FM that also has the long running "Blues Breakers" show on Saturday nights (7-9 CST) and the famous "Midnight Special" (9-midnight CST) that plays a lot of blues and obscure singer/songwriter stuff. You can stream it on the internets, but I know folks in the Detroit area can pick it up sometimes.

On demand music services like Spotify remove the need to listen to crap and crappy commercials. Then you search the songs up and download them as mp4's if you really like them.

Between those services and my own prior collections, I managed to create a 2 week 24/7 Playlist that never repeated, never had a commercial, in the middle of rain forests far from civilization, as I was clearing/fixing tracks for road works machinery to come in weeks later. All on my own....mostly no mobile coverage.... venomous snakes and plants every time I opened the doors to go for a slash, shit, or walk a few k's back to retrieve my service vehicle.

It was fucking bliss.

If I accidentally turn the radio on in my vehicles these days, it completely ruins my entire week.

I NEVER want to hear another ad filled regurgitated music Playlist.

Don't worry. The next 20 years will go by even quicker than the last 20.

Thanks for the panick attack, Reggie lol.

This just means I need to engage in as much balderdash, galavanting, lolygagging and tom foolery as possible. There is still time and i need to set a good example for my girls

All the things my grandma told me to stop doing i will do more of.

Those stop too after a time.

See, for me "on demand" takes away the magic of happening to be there when something good comes on the radio.

For months here in MI we were all subjected to endless Haley Stevens ads. It was way over kill and I suspect lost her the primaries if only because even the blue voters were sick of hearing about her.

Like a commercial for tiles, carpet, or a big pharma boner pill?
