I’ve always been a radio buff. Since I was in my teens I preferred AM talk radio over FM music channels.
I mostly grew up listening to conservative talk radio because that’s what dominated the AM dial. In the late evenings, I’d listen and fall asleep to Coast To Coast AM hosted by Art Bell. His format was bizarre chat ranging from UFO’s to Remote Viewing to Chupacabra’s and more. If it was wacky, it was on Art Bell’s show.
I think I listened to that show for about 6 years. Then one day I saw a picture of Art Bell and I no longer was interested in listening to the show. I know, weird. I wish I never saw his photo. I did the same thing once I saw Tom Leykis. I was over it.
Anyhow, the other day I was chilling in my RV and longed for the AM dial. Art Bell is no longer on the air, but George Noory took over as the resident kook at Coast to Coast AM. So I decided to search for an app on my iPhone that would let me find the channel.
Within minutes of searching I stumbled upon TuneIn Radio Pro.
TuneIn Radio Pro is pretty slick. It only cost .99 cents and with a couple taps of the finger I was listening to Coast To Coast AM. And what a delight because the guest that evening was Jack Canfield, the creator of the Chicken Soup For The Soul Series.
Jack was plugging his new book The Golden Motorcycle Gang, A Story Of Transformation.
The book sounded rad, and it was groovy to hear Jack’s voice upon first using TuneIn Radio Pro.
Right now as I’m typing this I’m listening to some tech show all about the iPhone. It’s actually pretty boring and this kid is just whining. I’d rather listen to some Chaka Khan or something besides this nerd.
And that’s what is cool about TuneIn Radio Pro. The claim is there is 50,000 or more options of what you can listen to. I’m not sure if that number is true, but there’s a hell of a lot of options.
Anyhow, if you’re into various types of radio, I’d definitely add this to your mobile device. They have talk radio, current events, sports, music, politics, spiritual, trucker radio and so much more.
Used to love listening to Art Bell. Did he die or just retire?
By the way Luke,as far as I know Art Bell will pop in now and then. Apparently he’s having medical issues with his back still. If you listen now and then you’ll hear Archived material with Art Bell. I love the conspiracy theorist’s, makes me laugh,along with the UFO shit. All those years partying my ass off in never,never land and I didn’t see any little green men,Ghosts or Pink Elephants. Damnit!
Personally,I love listening to my small Transistor radio daily. I haven’t watched regular TV in years, and don’t have a TV. Biggest waste of life there is. I strictly listen to AM Talk Radio like Jason. Since I live in the Eastern part of Canada, I get a lot of radio stations from the US North East.
I work a job,write for musicians and playing my bass more,and live a pretty humble life.Oh,and listen to talk radio. I keep the You Tube crap to a minimum as well.
Off To Watch Harness Racing Tonight here in Cold Ass Eastern Canada.
