Radio is an antiquated medium invented in 1942 by some Italian guy in order that sound, such as crappy music and blah blah blah, could be propagated. Earlier attempts using tin cans and string having proved fruitless, great advances were made once the key ingredient of technology was introduced, offering boys and girls all over the world the chance to listen to even more boring crap than they had ever thought existed.

[edit] Music

There are two theories about radio and its propegation of shitty music.

  1. The Exclusive Theory of Radio states that the nature of music makes it impossible for any good music to pass though the electromagnetic spectrum.
  2. The Inclusive Theory of Radio states that the nature of radio makes all music to pass through it crappy.

There is a theory that states that "there is good music on the radio if you know when to listen" but it has been hard for those who hold this position to prove themselves as every time they begin their argument they receive a savage bitchslapping from me. Another theory, propagated by the musical group Rush, dictates that a "spirit of radio" exists to "begin the day with a friendly voice" and to serve as "a companion" who is "unobtrusive". This spirit also "makes your morning move" and "never lingers". The Rusher theory views radio as "a timeless wavelength/Bearing a gift beyond place, almost free". This theory has never been proven, as Geddy Lee is too busy breaking windows and calling dogs to do anything.

Often enough a station will hold a monopoly on a genre just to piss you off.

[edit] Blah Blah Blah

Blah blah blah is blah blah Blah blah blah. Blah and blah will both blah blah Blah-ba-blah as long as blah blahs. Blah Blah blah blah blah and blah. In the event of a catastrophic loss of cabin pressure: first, blah followed by blah blah blah-bla-bah allowing the blah to fill up with blah. Remember, blah ba-buh-buh-blah buh blah-buh Blah-Blah Buh-LAA! Thank you.

English radio station DJs broadcasting from London to white people (lol, there's radio apartheid now in the UK) are HUGE fans of cultural appropriation. Unable to get over the vast glories of the British Empire being lost, English DJs now spend their entire time insulting, stereotyping AND exoticising other countries and their people to an embarassing extent, making them sound highly ignorant. Even the fucking radio adverts go on about other places. This is because England is the least exotic country on earth, and to be proud of it is to be accused of supporting the BNP.

 
 
I think it's about 10,000.
 

 

Typical ignorant britfag woman, guessing the population of Hawaii on Virgin Radio, even though it's actually 1.3 million, who also disregards the fact that she's on the station owned by a company which is trying to destroy net neutrality OMFG!

[edit] Internets Radio

With the advent of new technology always comes old shit repackaged as new and exciting non-shit. Many stations that once broadcasted over the airwaves now also broadcast on the internets. This allows you the ability to ignore them whereever and when you on the internet. Such is the case with internet radio. While good music is occasionally found on internet radio, now there is a preponderance of blah blah blah. No-one listens to the radio, and people that do are complete fags.

[edit] /b/radio

/b/radio was a previously awesome feature of /b/, made by anonymous members of /b/. It was a shoutcast server where listeners could upload what they wanted to hear. The same people who created it also created /b/TV, which in turn inspired /h/TV. /b/ is now currently MIA FUKKEN DEAD.

[edit] /a/radio

/a/radio is where all the f/a/gs who have nothing better to do with their nights go to listen to a shitload of animu, weeaboo and touhou music. Unlike /b/radio, this internets radio still exists, and as such, actually has a nonzero amount of listeners. There are three different streams, all running on Icecast: Aguro's Weeaboo Radio (usually up 24/7), K's Touhou Radio, and Live /a/radio. /a/radio also provides real-time track listings.

 
 
[/a/radio] will remain free: no donations, no money laundering, no mootxico
 

 

/a/radio website

For some reason, /a/ hates the fuck out of /a/radio; as such, anyone who posts a thread about it on /a/ will receive an automatic b&hammer free of charge.

[edit] Raidchan radio

Moar info: Raidchan.

Raidchan radio is a 24/7 online radio station jam packed with lulzcore, prank calls, CP and raidsAIDS. It's based out of Raidchan IRC, which itself is jam packed with great lulz and drama. The DJs (including the notorious Korax(> you)) play all kinds of music ranging from classic tunes, to obscure metal, to retarded video game remixes, to musical memes. They also do a fair bit of voicefagging, and offer their views, thoughts and reports on current events and anything else, including information on any noteworthy raids or shit to be careful of.
