I’m just a little too young for that. Mid 40s lol. Probably the last time it will be seen as radio doesn’t matter much. Speaking of which, maybe it was “iloveradio” bullshit that made it overplayed. I’m not even in a small area and I miss my local radio stations.

In that case you might remember people having similar reactions to Hootie & the Blowfish or Nickelback.
They’re all very popular, but very ‘safe’, overproduced, bland perhaps. That creates a backlash and it becomes cool to hate them.

Gotcha. I was just happy to be able to skip. Never hated.

iHeartRadio is a cancer. They’re just consolidating everything like Ticketmaster did with venues.
