# You can simulate the radio effect
by draping a sheet over your TV.

# Interesting.
For that to work, I'd need a TV.

# all analog an' shit
i honestly cannot listen to radio anymore. There is nothing that caters to my need for decent music, interesting chat and minimul adverts. I usually listen simultaniously to spotify and podcasts.

controllers of XFM, if you are listening. fuck you. you turned an interesting progressive station into a dribble bucket of cheesey old hits and adverts to join the army.

# I recently realised that the only music station to which I listen now
is Radio 3, and even that's not frequent. Otherwise, it's wall-to-wall R4.

It's been like this for years.

I'm still in my early 30s.

# ^ total snap.
loving Radio 4 makes me feel very middle-aged but I can't help it.
Radios 3, 4 and 7 piss all over the rest of the airwaves.

# Wasp Box' reply below
has reminded me that I sometimes listen to 6Music. But the fact that I have to be reminded of the fact demonstrates how frequent that is.

# What about 6 music?
It's like XFM should be

# i have been meaning to check that out for years.
