The reference is to American classical rock stations that use very aggressive sound bumpers but play very milktoast music, usually the same 40 songs since the 80’s

I think milquetoast is the word you want; milktoast is phonetically correct but that spelling refers to a breakfast dish.

Interesting. Milquetoast. I’ll need to internalize that spelling, thank you

Please tell me that “milktoast” isn’t something that people eat.
