What's happening to Columbus radio?

Question

Columbus, Ohio radio turning into one giant ipod with a sh1##y playlist?

Answer 1

Yep... C-Bus radio has been sliding downhill fast thanks to Clear Channel.  Even CD101 - while still independently owned runs a rather repetative schedule.  As was stated previously, 93.3 mixes it up quite a bit, if their style is what you're into.

Honestly though... the station that I run about 95% of the time is WCBE 90.5...  it's our NPR station... but it flat out jams.  

Music every day from 9-3pm - a good mix of rock, folk, blues, jazz, world... and most evenings.  

Sundays I find the best with AfroPop World Wide, a nice straight ahead Jazz Program, Blue Collar (hard core blues), Roots and Offshoots (some "kind" tunes)... and they wrap up the evening w/ The Grateful Dead Hour from 11-midnight.

Saturday evenings air Shakin' It (can't really put a label on this show) and All Mixed Up (some nasty techno, trance, dance, and trip-hop) from 10pm - 1am.

Throughout the week from 9-10 they run The World Cafe... and Echoes (some decent ambient music).

And... they stream taboot....

Other than that... it's usually 105.7 for FM sports talk radio... and Bob and Tom from 7-10am.

Answer 2

Yeah I know.  I guess it depends on what kind of music you like.  I listen to K95.5,  105.7,  and 93.3.  They rotate songs enough that the same songs aren't played more than once in an 8 hour period.
