P=)!!! And it is not just B-R-I....Most radio boards are extremely anemic these days?the only one that seems to have much activity is www.RadioDiscussions.com: https://www.RadioDiscussions.com/forums/boston.672 There is a B-R-I Archive page, where you can view monthly activity (if there is any!

To 18-to-34-year-olds? Anecdotally, no one I know under 30 will admit to listening to the radio at all. My parents are in their 70s now and they have the local country station on whenever they're awake and not watching TV. Young people I know get their music from Spotify and their spoken-word from podcasts and audiobooks.
