Fm Radio Sucks

[Bassturd]

Everyday when I'm out driving I spend more time skipping radio stations than listening to them in hopes of finding something that doesn't suck. Anyone else the same?

People still use radio?

That's why you load a bunch of good songs on to your phone then connect your phone to the car via bluetooth or aux in but you will need a cable for that.

Some local stations have good personalities to listen to while driving. Most days I listen to music while driving.

Most mainstream radio programming is just that, programming. Or post-hypnotic reinforcement and entrainment.

[Hairy Hands Harry]

No. It is fine for me.

Is there anything that is NOT a conspiracy theory for you?

It's been decades I don't listen to radio stations.

There are few really good radio stations in Brazil, the rest is "Gospel" literally begging for money or fear mongering to get it.

Oh, and some crap cuck music (literally called "musica de corno", or Sertanejo de Corno).

The first thing you need to question is whether people actually know what they're doing or why at any given time. There is what you think you're doing, and there's what you actually did.

The second is to not think in terms of people and their conscious, witting, intent. Instead think in terms of control structure, motivational structure, and diffusion of information and behavior. This is a nonlinear "ecological" perspective. Balance teleology and etilogy, as it's a layered structure.

This right here.
Good radio DJs/personalities is the only reason to listen to FM anymore.
In modern terms it is kind of like a podcast but they play music as well.

Radio doesn't pick up AM?

It's all christian music and boomer politics. At least FM has music, but the selection is just abysmal.
