List?

[Paul Currier]

Thanks Bill.  I must have somehow become de-listed.

Yep. Still throwing a carrier.

Hello Garrett and all,

I’ve had this empty feeling:  Is the list still alive?   We’ve had some action here on Cape Cod recently – John H Garabedian sold his 4 stations and Bob Bittner has joined the cape with an AM and FM.

Thanks,
Paul Currier, radio nut who still misses AM and real radio in general.

I hate to be asking on this of all mailing-lists, but is the radio
morning show still relevant?  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.  (Traffic and weather from smartphone apps, and news
on social media or Google News.)
