How did I live without this radio station for so many years?…read more I started listening to KRAB radio a little more than a year ago after my favorite channel (Jack.FM) got bought out by KUZZ and started playing country music. It's in my nature to hate country music so naturally I took my radio dial to a different setting. I've known about KRAB radio for as long as I've lived in Bakersfield but I always thought it was oddball rock music that I didn't like and at a certain point in time that could have been true because everyone's taste in music is always changing. Switching from Jack.FM to KRAB was a big change. Jack.FM didn't have a DJ, it was just a few clever catchphrases that were probably recorded before the day began in between ads and wildly different kinds of music. Robin, Scuba Steve, and Danny Spanks are all wonderful hosts that keep every broadcast interesting. I especially like Robin's shows with her mom in the morning where I sometimes find myself laughing out loud by myself on my way to work. KRAB radio also keeps me updated on recent events and even holds their own annual concert called the KRAB Free 4 All. KRAB was already my favorite radio station before I started listening, I just didn't know it yet.

I listened to the Woody Show this AM. Head voice (Woody?) mentions Dem debates coming up. Crew…read moretalks a little about Bloomberg's first debate, old man Biden, etc. Woody (?) says "Yeah maybe you should vote." Female crew member says "Yeah you should absolutely..." Woody (?) cuts her off, says some stuff about how he's So Against PC culture. Then he launches into one of the most uninformed opinions ting I've ever heard. He gets facts wrong (crime is actually down) he misrepresents current events (we're making bad guys out of good guys, coddling children, blah blah blah). Then he launches into a discussion of NFL current events, proving he CAN deal with data and CAN think abstractly. So all the previous? Just being purposefully obnoxious. I wonder if he knows how many obnoxious morning shows KRAB has dumped? Me? Back to streaming my own song list on the commute. Bye-bye Woody (?)

I listen to this whenever I have the radio on..it is the best country music in town. Beats KUZZ…read more100% ..BUT when they broadcast from Crystal Palace, I run to turn it off. I have never heard such horrible music in my life. For some reason, after Buck died, his son thought he could revive his musical career, and he still sounds terrible. Sadly, he used his dad's death to get back into the business, even taking back the Owens name he had dropped. I wish the evening music was as good as the daytime, but as long as they allow young Owens on live, I am not listening. Today, for some reason, static came on many times, as a song finished. Is the disc jockey asleep? Whatever, today is not representative of how good this station can be.

I was turned onto this GEM while browsing away in "In Your Wildest Dreams" a lovely consignment/antique shop - and had to ask the gal ringing me up what the station was that was playing! ++ R & B oldies - the less than usual Motown classics, Lowrider gems, and my personal fav - FUNK! And not the same old played out Cameo song (Word Up!) but the Bar Kays, Slave, Rick James (the goods that are typically NOT played on the radio), The Time, Prince (remember "Lady Cab Driver"??) and Fatback - HELLO! ++ Modern R & B oldies - R. Kelly, Guy, Cover Girls - and again, songs that you NEVER hear on the radio any more. I almost crashed the rental when "Thighs High" came on - haven't heard that jam in YEARS!

I can't recall a time listening in to him speak where he isn't making women the butt of his jokes by reinforcing sexist tropes like "if you're over a size 6 that means you're fat LOL" or "if you're muscular some men won't like that LOL", and best of all "it's hot outside and girls are wearing shorts, call in and tell us if you think they're SLUTS LOL!" (perpetuating rape culture much??), and just yesterday they were going on about how "women don't understand technology LOLZ". I'll stick to KLLY and HOT 93.1, both of which have a better mix of music and , so far, I've yet to hear make any kind of sexist comments. KLLY goes out of their way to say positive things about women on their radio show daily to lift the self esteem of their viewers instead of getting a laugh at their expense.

(Also- truth be told, I love my pop music...as well as other types! sheesh...haha) HOWEVER....they play the SAME FIVE SONGS every hour! I remember when "Umbrella" came out by Rhianna, we played a little game to see how many times it came on the radio. We counted ten (TEN!) times...in our 8 hour shift! Enough is enough!!! Here's how I feel- you definently want to make the people happy by playing a popular song. But sometimes, you want to tease them...make them wait for it a little bit longer. It might keep me on your station! I do love how they play some throw-back hits from the early 2000's and late 90's. I just wish they would play a little more variety. Okay- a LOT more variety.
