I just cancelled sirius because they moved John Fugelsang's show time from 2-5 to noon.

The only thing I could get that I wanted to hear was NPR and I can get that for free on the radio.

Idiots. The replacement was some idiot who kept selling his book and lecture series on some kind of financial self-help b.s.

I'm thinking of looking into other options for the car.

If your drive rarely has cell dead zones then you could try audio streaming. I have the TuneIn app and occasionally I'll stream WZOO or Gold London on my drive instead of listening to the radio (FM/AM/SiriusXM). If you have one of these "unlimited" cell plans, or don't mind paying for the data it might be worth it.

The charge is less than the radio subscription.

Still the unfortunate time shift but you can listen at your leisure. And it’s fun to watch, though so far the camera is less than stellar.

Thank you!

You don't listen to MSNBC on Sirius? How about the BBC World Service? Those two, and CNN, are pretty much the only ones I ever listened to, but thanks to you I now have one more channel to add to those!
