Radio is hot garbage. If it had that romanticism of college style or 3 dog style from fallout then maybe. But 90% of the shit is formulaic garbage prerecorded weeks in advance. the hosts are usually some dumbed down version of most people so they can feel smart when listening to them banter like idiots about dumb headlines. but when you learn that even the "call ins" are fake it really just shows how bloated the media of radio has gotten.
Radio has good qualities about it, but programming today is dead and dying. because are you really gonna turn that FM on? or just bit up soundcloud, spotify and listen to YOUR music not some bs top 5 chart songs played over ad nauseum at 1.2 speed and horrendously edited to the point half the lyrics get reamed.
Radio would need to redeem itself a thousand fold to ever be considered useful to the modern man again.
Alex Jones came from Radio....
We have NPR news and a separate NPR classical channel. I listen to them both. That's it, though.
NPR is the only good radio left.
