The photo has nothing to do with the discussion. The Australian Broadcasting Commission’s (ABC) three radio stations are switching from Am to FM. I don’t understand much about it but it will supposedly give a better quality...

Remembering 2025’s Losses: Gary Burbank

Four Walls @FourWalls (86698) • United States 2 Jan

Being so wrapped up in music I’ve paid tribute to the greats and barely-known artists who’ve passed away since I’ve been here (eleven years now!). Last year I decided to look at other walks of life and salute them as well. And,...

Wednesday, another “Ladies’Day”

SIDDI KIMPOLE @SIDIKIMPOLE (3480) • Eldoret, Kenya 15 Oct

Well, Wednesday’s here. Usually referred to as WCW and most radio stations here in Kenya only allow ladies to call in during their morning shows. Again, social media floods with posts full of praise for endeared ladies. I wish all...

Goodbye Howard Stern?

Jim Bauer @porwest (112876) • United States 6 Aug

It seems over the past couple of years, although it's ramped up recently, there's been a shift in the media that is rather significant if one is really paying attention. The woke left has just become a little too crazy for most...

Did Laundry, Fed all the Varmits, and cleared another bin in the dining room. Tom's B-day is Thursday, but his present came yesterday, so I gave it to him when it was delivered. I got him an Android Tablet. He spends a lot of...

SIDDI KIMPOLE @SIDIKIMPOLE (3480) • Eldoret, Kenya 15 May 25

Today I was in the farm from 5am to 8am. I did some slashing, then weeding and lastly thinning. As I was thinning my sugarcanes, I was also listening to a morning show on a local radio station. They were discussing mental health...

On 06.05.2025 there was a worldwide commemoration of the World Asthma Day. I didn’t know that or perhaps I had forgotten. One of our radio stations is what made me aware of it as they had a guest in their morning show who was...

I Can't Believe That My Favorite Songs Are Now One of the Retro Music in the Radio

luisadannointed @luisadannointed (11848) • Philippines 25 Mar 25

I was shocked when I first heard that Westlife's songs was now already included in the Retro Music in the radio. When I was in highschool, the 70s music was the retro, but now it was the 90s boybands' songs like music by...

I woke myself up early!

Fleur @Fleura (35031) • United Kingdom 7 Feb 25

I hate alarm clocks (it doesn’t feel at all natural to wake with a jump every day) but my partner is dependent on one, he will just sleep until mid-afternoon unless something wakes him. So we have compromised with a clock-radio,...

Remembering 2024’s Losses: Bob Edwards

Four Walls @FourWalls (86698) • United States 6 Jan 25

One thing for sure: this weather is making me lazy! I stayed in bed an extra hour, not to sleep but to just stay warm. Now I’m up and ready to take on the day (which may or may not include putting my recycling bin at the curb)....

As per a report in yahoo finance, 40% of young adults in US depend on influencers to stay updated on current events and politics. What is shocking is a vast majority of these influencers have never worked in the news industry or...

What do you listen to in the car?

Pitstop @pitstop (15551) • Australia 3 Nov 24

I usually listen to the radio in the car, even on long drives, unless I can't access any good radio station. I usually listen to a station that has good clean music and some talk. I'm surprised at the amount of vulgarity and bad...

15 Seconds of Fame...Again

Jim Bauer @porwest (112876) • United States 9 Oct 24

Would I ever want to be famous? I've actually posed that question more than once around here and my simple answer is usually no. It would be fun for a short time, but then I'd want my normal life back. But feeling "famous" every...

For the first time since George's been out of the hospital, he's seemed the most like himself. He's not only spent most of the day outside, but he's opened the side door and turned on the radio. He used to sit outside, get some...

It's the third time I have had an email of mine read on the air by the local morning radio show here on 105.7 The Point, the Rizzutto Show. The first two times they simply said, "Jim says," and then read my email. This time it...
