I do. Most stations in my region are just crappy music and dumb call-in shows, but there’s still a few stations with quality programming. FM radio is where I get my news, where I listen to press conferences, old-school audio theatre and (surprisingly) where I get new music recommendations. Hard to believe that modern streaming platforms’ algorithms can be outperformed by traditional media.

    Mostly no. Currently the only time I put it on is when I’m away from the computer for a length of time doing something quiet.

    And I’d probably not even do so then if I had a tablet or smartphone to cue something up from the Internet instead.

    (I’m basically stuck in the '90s here. Largely by choice, but money is a factor.)
