Rossman Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 I subscribe to the KEXP Youtube channel for the sessions. They are well engineered and always sound great. There is also another station called KCRW in California. They have a show called Morning Becomes Eclectic which is 3 hours of indie/alternative music.

SuperBacon Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 Out of nowhere I've become a daily listener to the BBC World Service. I know that the BBC gets a ton of shit these days (and quite rightly in the past couple of weeks) but bloody hell, this is the absolute quality that they can and do put out every day. Over the last two hours, I've listened to programmes on Jason Arday, the youngest black person ever to have been given a professorship at Cambridge, something on Arthur Briggs who was a jazz trumpeter, something on a Vietnamese Navy Commander who retired to the States to become a manicurist, and now a discussion on AI and cyber psychology. Fantastic. I usually just listen to music when I'm working from home, but the World Service has taken over most days. Long live the Beeb.

It's legitimately incredible the variety of content that they put out and the quality. Even just daily shows like Outlook and Witness History are always fascinating, let alone the flagship Tuesday and Wednesday documentaries. It's a tremendous service with some fantastic people working there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Jazzy G Posted March 29, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted March 29, 2023 If I'm in the car with my mum we listen to Radio 2 which is usually Scott Mills then Sara Cox, but if I'm listening to the radio myself it's usually 5Live for me. It's usually just Dotun Adebayo, or maybe I'll play 606 on catchup while I'm falling asleep. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

World Football Phone In is the best radio show ever and it's mostly down to Dotun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
