rockmom Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 I drive a lot these days, and I just got Sirius Radio. So lately, I've been amusing myself wtih a plethora of channels. Today, I amused myself by listening to the traffic reports in LA, NYC, Boston, Chicago, San Fran, San Diego, Dallas and Phoenix...while sitting in traffic. What are some of your favorites on Sirius that I should check out? I also did have a sort of odd Come-To-Jesus moment. I'd gotten off I-64 into downtown thinking that would be a better option than sitting in stand-still traffic on I-64. However, I eventually found myself partially in an intersection with a TARC bus bearing down on me from the drivers side. I had been listening to some opera as I went through my channels (a tribute to mcpapa). I looked left---bus bearing down! I backed up the best I could considering the guy behind me was right on my bumper, and somehow I managed to clear enough room for the bus to miss me. I looked at my radio display and Handel's Messiah was what was playing! :eek: Divine intervention?:sssh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coldweatherfan Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Love me some XM. Mrs C got me a MYFI several years ago. I have an antenna in every vehicle and take it with me everywhere. 27 presets it rocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PurplePride92 Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 I had Sirius strictly for Howard Stern and ESPN radio. Howard signed a new contract that allows him to do about 4 shows every two weeks so I dropped it. I miss ESPN radio. I would listen to Around the Horn and PTI on the way home from work. I listened to Shady 45 when I wanted music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clyde Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 I listened to Shady 45 when I wanted music. I catch a couple of shows on Shady 45. They've done a nice job this week in regards to the Beasties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SportsGuy41017 Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 I first had Sirius 8 years ago, had it for about 3 or 4 years and I miss it. When I get a new car this fall I am going to get it again, as I keep getting these ads for 5 or 6 months for $25. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dolamite Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Shade 45 Hip Hop Nation Lithium Ozzy's Boneyard Greatful Dead Channel ESPN Deep Tracks The Spectrum Faction XL The Coffeeshop Those are the ones that I usually tune into. Favorite show by far is "All Out Show" on Shade 45. Because of language and certain topics it can get pretty rated R, but man oh man does it make my day at 4:00pm every evening when I get off work. It is without question one of the most entertaining shows on siriusxm, M-F 4:00-6:00 is when it usually airs. Probably wouldn't like it if you don't like hip hop, but if you like that kind of music in the least it would be almost impossible not to enjoy.

PurplePride92 Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 The All Out Show is the best radio show no one has heard of. I miss those dudes too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dolamite Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 The All Out Show is the best radio show no one has heard of. I miss those dudes too. :thumb: The best, without question. Hate it or Love it is the most entertaining segment on all of radio. It also took me like two years to figure out Rude Jude was white. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True blue (and gold) Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 I really didn't enjoy Sirius when I had it on my new car. It was nice not losing stations as I drive long distances, but I can't really say that I enjoyed specific channels very much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hangman Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 I love listening to NFL and Pearl Jam Radio. Moving the Chains makes my drive home go a little faster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEERFAN Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 I try to listen to AM sports on terrestrial radio but it's very difficult with all the commercials. I tune into Lance on 700 and he's on for five minutes then they have a five minute news break. I don't know what I would do without my Sirius.
