I will take it a step further...I haven’t listened to RADIO in over 5 years. Give me Amazon music all day!I have never listened to talk radio. NEVER. Not political talk radio. Not sports talk radio. There are better ways to spend my time than to listen to loud, narcissistic people shouting their opinions ... some dangerous, some uninformed, others just crazy.
Radio (especially in the car) was meant for music ... whether it be classical, rock, folk, jazz, or whatever (take your choice). Not for a lot of people yelling at each other.

If you are talking about my political posts on Facebook, people who disagree can just skip them (or unfriend me). It's pretty hard to skip people who are yelling on the radio. They are part of the fabric of the broadcast.Cto, you are great. But your description of talk radio sounds very familiar to something else you frequently engage with...
Personally, I enjoy interviews. When it is all opinion...point counterpoint for the sake of filling time, that’s when I tune out. Provide me with information and I will form my own opinion.If you are talking about my political posts on Facebook, people who disagree can just skip them (or unfriend me).

Meeting Bill Walton at a restaurant is some great bucket list material. I know he gets a lot of flack on this board, but I love hearing him drone on about unusual topics during a PAC-12 game once in awhile.When I met Bill Walton(quite a guy) at a restaurant in San Diego in September 2019 he talked about sports radio.
It sticks with me today.
He said he it made him sad to listen too. That the amount of effort he put into his game and health problems he had he couldn’t play today because of sports radio talking about that stuff. When he played they didn’t have it.

Wholeheartedly agree. There was a really good talk radio show in SF in the late 90s, The Razor and Mr. T, with longtime Bay Area sports radio host Ralph Barbieri and ex Warrior player Tom Tolbert. Didn't have any of today's idiocy.I have never listened to talk radio. NEVER. Not political talk radio. Not sports talk radio.

As a 12yo in Philly in 1965 I was able to pickup WNBC 660 and listen to the late, great Bill Mazer at 5pm weekdays. His show, which you may remember Joyce, had none of those things you described. Sports talk radio has generally, not all of it but most, gone downhill ever since.I have never listened to talk radio. NEVER. Not political talk radio. Not sports talk radio.
