Everyone knows that feeling when they are driving away from home and their radio starts to get that static sound. Soon, before long, one’s favorite radio station is no longer playing and static is the only option, minus searching for a new station. It can be a frustrating situation. It is common to find people who will sit in their car for a few minutes longer simply to hear the end of a great song rather than go into work and miss out on hearing it.
Fortunately for those who love to hear the radio and listen to music there are viable options even when a radio is not available. It is possible to listen to 90s music on your computer while streaming it from the internet. It is becoming common for many radio stations to stream their feed over the internet so they can reach larger markets than simply those who are in range of their broadcast.
One popular radio media type is talk radio. This has become a very popular option for many because of the different topics that are covered. One of the most famous talk radio hosts is Howard Stern. He is well known for pushing the boundaries and is regarded as a shock jock. Talk radio spans all subjects and fields, from sports to politics. NPR, National Public Radio, is a well known radio station that is primarily considered a talk radio station. It is typically supported by a local university and provides the public with current and interesting news.
