102 clearfm on the morning drive, QX104 after the Waking Crew is finished (can't deal with Troy Westwood and his whining). Or my Ipod connected to the stereo.

I flip around quite a bit...unless I'm playing my CDs

Primary choices though:
100.7 Hank
104.1 QX104
680AM CJOB
990AM CBC
105.5 NCI
102.3 CLR

Kind of depends on the time of day too. CJOB recently switched the afternoon drive to some woman with an annoying whiny voice...so I switch channels now in the afternoon.
Hank has gotten rid of Troy & Simone (well, Troy left for BC..don't know what happened to Simone) and brought in "Moose"...who is annoying and insulting...and I'm hoping he doesn't succeed in meeting his 100K.
Ron Able is now gone (sad story) from QX104, and he's the only one who made the morning show tolerable, since all Caroline can do is whine about how many guys she's not dating.

Speaking of whining, Marty Gold might be the most whiny of them all. His snits followed by that breathy harrumph might be the most pathetic of all broadcasters in Winnipeg.

I usually just keep it on BOB FM, but their morning show has been unbearable for the last little while.

Has anyone ever tuned in to NCI-FM's Sunday night religious program? The musicians on there used to be quite..... independent of one another, to put it politely.

The only talk radio that I like is sports game, and most of the rest is boring; blah blah blah blah.

Need music when I'm driving, especially on road trips. Our work vehicles are equipped with satellite radio so when we are in the boonies, we can still listen to tunes. Thank goodness!

92.9 KICK-FM, 94.3 Curve-FM.

94 is much better since the big change. Though I've noticed that they bleep more words than other stations. For example, in that green day song they blank out "masturbation" and a bunch of other stuff, whereas 97 only blanks out f*ck. Oh well.. I like the mix.

Imo, it's important to have a Seek feature.

When I'm driving, I want laid-back music. Makes me less susceptible to road rage and wanting to kill.

yeah our van has the feature of you tell it to look for the type of music and it scans the radio stations for that type...once they all go digital it will be way uber cool.

I never understood that.
If you're going to play the song...PLAY IT...otherwise, take it out of your playlist. Nobody wants to here "la la la BLEEP la la BLEEP"

Either that, or play the "radio edit" version which all artists make if they expect airtime.

I forget what station I was listening to a couple weeks ago...(I think it was HOT103), and the announcer said "Crazy Bitch" by Buckcherry was coming on.

So this I had to hear...for those who don't know the chorus...cover your eyes:

She's such a crazy b1tch, but she fucks so good I'm down with it.

So...are they going to play THAT on the radio? I had to know.

I listened...here's what you hear on the radio:

She's such a crazy b1tch, but she uh ks so good I'm down with it.

Now...your mind fills in the missing "f" sound...cause I had to listen closely NOT to hear it.

But it hasn't been that long since you couldn't say "bitch" on the radio either.
