music / broadcast radio salty take
So the last three days my coworker has had an 80s pop rock radio station on for eight hours.
The list of songs has seemed nearly identical each day.
Quick mental math indicates that they probably play 150 to *maybe* 200 songs, TOPS.
What is even the *point* of broadcasting the same 150 songs from four decades ago?

@starkatt Could be worse. At a warehouse job I had, the other folks listened to a hip-hop channel.
I got to the point where I was running a tally of certain songs and how many times they'd repeat per /day/. Some were up to 6-7 times. And yet, half the time the DJs still claimed the track was "requested".

@emanate My old coworker Truck Boy listened to one of the pop stations. Every time a song he liked came on he'd get all excited, even if it had played less than an hour ago. He only seemed to notice this after I pointed it out.

@starkatt Music is a hella weird drug if you don't know how to use it. :-D
