Modern Baseball on the way to the station (very short walk, only got a song and a half in), Noname for the walk from the station to the office (seeing her tonight you see).

Edit: I read on the actual train journey itself (Smoke Gets in Your Eyes: And Other Lessons from the Crematory by Caitlin Doughty)

sounds like you have your ear-finger firmly on the pulse of fresh music, man. both of those names mean nowt to me

#23

Nah, not really pal, bit of anomaly this morning in that they’re both relatively new artists innit. You should check out the Noname album, she’s fucking great, think you’d like her:

I only listen to Eye of the Tiger on a constant loop in case there’s a surprise nerdy card game tournament on nearby.

Used to be Radio 4 100%

Then I discovered podcasts.

Now it’s Radio Fuck-all 100%

how do you keep up with the current affairs? other than Tatler

:smiley: actually snorted

I mean I will sometimes listen to Radio 4, but I’m not in a regular habit enough to claim it - I tend to read things instead for news maaaaan.

6music - 60%
FIP - 30%
5Live/Talksport - 10%

It was something like:
6music - 50%
TXFM - 45%
Whatever station has a sporting event on I’m interested in - 5%

But TXFM just went off air yesterday, so Ireland doesn’t have a dedicated alternative music station any more AFAIK :frowning:

BBC 6Music - 80%
Radio 4 - 10%
Radio 2 - 5% (in the car)
Radio Oxford - 5% (only for the football)

honestly, 75% of the time i’m in a car it’s radio 4 for the news (if not on the hour or at 6 then the today programme, pm, woman’s hour, world at one etc.)

then radio 1 (i am a not-so-secret scott mills fan) or radio 2 (good: popmaster jamie cullum, occasionally jeremy vine winding people up on the phone-ins and elaine paige/paul o’grady on a sunday. going to miss doing impressions of desmond carrington and playing the game where you guess the theme just going off the first song you hear)

on the DAB or the kitchen speaker: 1 xtra, kisstory, rinse or podcasts.

R4 morning and comedy in the evening. R2 at the weekends. I just can’t do R1 any more. I held out for a while, into my 30s, but had to give up.

At the weekends in the evening, when Liza Tarbuck and Paul O Grady come on, I stream a cheesy radio station broadcast from Tenerife. Just something non taxiing.

Honestly, I work with IT, so shouldn’t be surprised by it, but the fact I can use WiFi to get the station from here, and Bluetooth to wirelessly put it through my stereo is a wonder of technology to me.

It’s a cliche, but as I am 40, I remember when listening to music often involved sat poised by a massive stereo system listening to the top 40 and taping the music i liked.
