    We used to just leave a vehicle parked somewhere while we made dinner or did other stuff and let the radio play!

    People sometimes would stop by and realize, after a bit of convo, they were hearing something and be baffled as to what the hell we were listening too.

        The talk radio was the best! I was not a fan of most talk radio past morning shows but I loved all of the GTA ones. Somehow it made more sense listening to their off the wall shit than the real talk radio stations.

          I used to love listening to Chatterbox on GTA 3. Lazlo and the Hispanic guy used to make me laugh like crazy, and now I listen to NPR and podcasts so I guess I eventually learned to like talk radio.

          There’s a little subgenre of podcasts with a similar vibe. Try “Welcome to Nightvale” and “Beef and Dairy Network”. Though I’m sure there are slightly less weird options out there too.

            Oh, I have listened to Wlcome to Nightvale! I liked the SCP archives too. I will have to check out Beef and Diary Network as soon as I get to a pause point on Box of Oddities. It may have been that GTA radio that had me prepped for podcasts.
