Bootcamp Day 48 — Buzz XM

Buzz XM may be filled with
“America’s Hottest and Most Controversial Talk Stars,” but as far as I’m concerned,
it’s a waste of bandwidth, like almost all talk radio.

Or, to quote E. B. White, “I say it’s spinach, and I say to hell with it.”

For that matter, I have pretty low expectations of all of the channels Bootcamp will be visiting this week and next — so any surprises will be pleasant ones. I hope.

Bootcamp Day 46 — XM Music Lab

XM Music Lab has a split personality. Sometimes, it plays good ole progressive rock (Yes, Genesis, and the like). Othertimes, it plays “jam bands” like Phish.

My tastes lean strongly towards the old stuff. So my reaction to this channel varied a lot through the day — when it was good, it was very, very good, but when it was bad, it was barely OK.

I’ll be back here, but how long I stay on any visit will depend very much on what mode the playlist is in at that instant.

Shabbat Shalom!
