You should listen and support your local community radio station. There are a lot of fantastic stations with music programming you won’t get from an algorithm.
Ps fuck sinclair… even under soros they will be a top down radio station and won’t have YOUR local communities best interest at heart.
I am a DJ on a local non commercial radio station. All music all the time. We do have show promos (i.e listen to face metal on Friday from 4pm to 6pm with your host dj sparkles) but no underwriting so we aren’t shilling for a Corp at the top of every hour either.
If you are on lemmy you should be looking at what your local stations are doing to try to empower the local community.
I listen to podcasts more than I watch tv. why podcasts? because I don’t listen to music radio and the talk stations are either right wing syndicated crap or right wing owned crap, otherwise I’m listening to radio.
Who even still listens to Radio though? Is this the 2010’s?

Sorry, that ship has sailed. Far too many commercials or commercial like content on even local radio. It’s just not worth listening to.

Thank you for this. As my comment said, I’ve completely written off radio as viable.
I’ll take a look into local stations again to see if there’s anything around me similar to what you are describing.
Alex Jones got his start on local community radio. Let that sink in.
I would not be surprised if it’s big with people driving cars.
Drive car, can confirm.
Podcasts can be played in cars
“Heart of the beast” though…
