Do you mean “radio”? Because I’m pretty sure that’s already a thing.

    And people think I'm weird for never having the radio on in my car.

    I rarely have mine on, but that's because a mate snapped the antenna off. It's got one Slim Dusty tape in it, and most of the time only the left speaker works.

    The Bluetooth speaker on the dash plays the poddies, and holding the volume button on the phone skips any ads.

    Someone should make Sponsorblock for poddies.

    Streaming music has really changed my life!

    Radio was so bad with endless ads and blather, with the occasional pop sing, that it was just not worth listening to. I kept finding myself in continuous “seek” trying to find a channel playing music and it was completely aggravating.

    Now with endless streaming music of my choice , no ads or blather, I’ve gone from never listening to music in my car or home, to always. It’s like I’ve discovered a new form of entertainment.

    I’ve had a new car about 8 months, and I’ve listened to the radio only once to verifying know how to use it. But Spotify is always there!
