    "Boston's Snooze Radio" just became Boston's idiotic misinformation radio!…read more A late night host just tried to convince (an obviously 'challenged' caller) that Donald Trump was Roy Cohen's attorney and - I believe (but was so already flabbergasted by that absurd statement that I may have mis-heard - that Trump later hired Cohen as a cabinet member during his first term as President. I mean, it is clear this host person was either drunk, otherwise impaired or had some sort of intellectual issue - but wow. This is a NEWS station? Holy cow. DELETED from presets.

    WBZ's radio tagline is "Live, local, and fiercely independent."…read more Except WBZ is anything BUT independent. They're owned by "iHeart Media", which the biggest national radio conglomerate in the country, with almost 1,000 stations in their portfolio, including about half-a-dozen others just in the Boston area alone. iHeart Media calls all the shots. They decide who goes and who stays. They decide the programming content. They decide the scheduling. They decide everything. WBZ isn't even remotely independent. This is the OPPOSITE of independent. They're about as corporate as corporate radio can get. The fact that they would gaslight their listeners by claiming they're "fiercely independent" tells you all you need to know about this garbage station, which has been circling the drain ever since iHeart Media made them indentured servants in 2017. If you want to hear a mind-numbing "Kars for Kids" ad about 60 or 70 times a day, WBZ is your huckleberry. Otherwise, you're far better off getting your news online. There are plenty of better online options for local news, who really are independent, unlike this sad fraud of a radio station.

    WERS used to be one of the best college radio stations in the country. Then, they apparently forgot…read morethat they are a college radio station. Instead of letting students take the lead, they hire a few cringeworthy amateurs like their insuffurable afternoon drive announcer and a host of their weekend Coffeehouse acoustic show who brings in the same six albums in her collection every week and plays the same one song from each. Last Saturday, I counted more than half a dozen songs which are played virtually every week. The careers of two of her favorites--Joanna Newsom and Broken Social Scene--hopefully be cut short by the international shortage of helium. They sound like Alvin and the Chipmunk tribute bands. Musical tastes are subjective but if the announcers don't know anything about the music, they should educate themselves. That's what college is supposedly about. The host of The Coffeehouse talks more about coffee than music. (Her conversation mirrors her musical choices--every comment on repeat). WERS might be able to cut back on their now incessant fundraising drives if they diverted some of the money they spend on MBTA advertising back into the station and if their management would more responsive to their students and their listeners.

    This is the worst college radio station in America, which is nuts because 30 years ago it was among…read morethe best. College radio is widely understood as the freeform radio vanguard, where one can hear musical offerings unavailable on commercial radio. When I tune into a college station, I don't want to hear a single song I know. 99% of what WERS plays nowadays is Top 40 "alternative" music from the 80s and 90s. Stuff I've been sick of for decades. Honk shoo. It's a college station masquerading as a commercial station masquerading as a twenty year-old iPod. If you are a retailer looking for the most unchallenging background noise for your shoppers to ignore, or perhaps a listener looking for a radio station to convince you that not only has there been no good music made in the past 35 years, but also that maybe music was just never good, WERS is it.
