For a long time over the airwaives a program stated that the show could be streamed on the Oddysey network… I kept searching and for the longest time, I could not find it. For whatever reason, someone spelled it out as audacy once. I could never figure out why they did not automatically. Know that spelling it might be a good idea. Someone told me to check out Odyssey headphones one time. It took me a while to figure out it was “Audeze”. I likewise felt that a little spelling would have been the courteous thing to do. |

When I still surfed the roads doing outside sales used to listen to ton of talk radio. Never was much for podcasts. But can still support and respect the folks that enjoy that format.

Long ago at class 8 truck show we sold 250 Sirus Players and walked away with duffle bag full of credit card sales and checks this before you could run transactions from your phone. It was a mad house cluster .... people wanted satellite radio some woman were crying because they were so happy they wouldn't have to suffer the dead zones of Arizona and New Mexico off the 40 and the 10. When I got back to the store manager was being a real arse so I told him you run the credit card slips and verification on the chocks because I am going home it has been a long day and I already did my part.

I'm not quite sure where this belongs, so I'll drop it here. I was listening to it, after all. I'm not familiar With Jason Patrick pipes, but this one is nice and I got a real kick out of the old gentleman it was gifted to:
I watched a couple of his other videos. He's an Anglican priest in Cambridge, a poet of some note, and a scholar.

After listening to some tracks, I sometimes let the software pick the next ones for a while. Sometimes it does a really good job of theme and variation. Sometimes . . . not. I would avoid the commercials that way… Sometimes I hear new music I actually like on the radio that I probably wouldn’t encounter otherwise though. Not saying that happens a lot, but sometimes. Prime music creates "stations" for me, but they are never what I want to hear. AI has a long way to go, or Amazon is getting money for trying to push stuff on me. |

Wife listens to Pandora on her phone since the SiriusXM quit on her car, but it doesn't work between towns |

It's what I do download them on wifi so I'm not using up all my data on podcasts as I listen to alot. |

I've always enjoyed Regina Spektor. So quirky and different from most everything else. She's almost a throwback chanteuse. Here's a Tiny Desk Concert. The last couple of tracks are 2 of my favorites of hers:

All of the trucks come with radios that have Sirius capability, but the company does not activate it. |

I often listen to amateur and/or semi-professional musicians (thank you YouTube). They seem bring an authenticity and enthusiasm to their music that is rarely duplicated in the professional studio. And they often perform music that is less "popular."
This tune was "composed" by an Irishman named Paddy Fahey. He never made a commercial recording of his music, never distributed it in written form--in fact--he didn't even name his tunes (they have been numbered by other musicians). Yet he is considered one of the finest composers of Irish Traditional music who ever lived. He passed away a few years ago (at age 102). Maybe lots to be said for good Irish whiskey and Irish music.
Here is a young Irish woman from West Limerick performing his "Jig #1" at a regional competition. I believe the Irish would call this the "pure drop."

I lack the expertise to describe what the Irish sound is, but my paternal grandmother was an O'Sullivan, and whenever that music is played, a spark in my soul ignites.

My dad was a fiddler but I never got to hear him play. I was told he was very good. |
