I'm kind of shocked there are still radio stations at all
I don't know anyone under 40 that listens to the radio, even in the car. They all have to be losing money right? Who spends advertising dollars on a radio ad
I know, right bro?! It's, like, I can't believe people still do <insert mundane activity> in <current year.>
But on the generational note, I usually notice it's more older folks like my parents' generation who are constantly plugged into their phones, newsfeeds, and streaming content, and concerned with keeping up with what the kids are doing.
I still find human dj's or curators to be better than the algorithm is for finding new music I'm going to like, and I'm generally more interested in local events and news than I am in whatever the **** is trending nationally.
Especially if I'm traveling, I'll find stuff to do, or sometimes regional music influences by flipping the local radio dial. Streaming services and apps are better for finding exactly what you're looking for, but there aren't as many interesting surprises.
