On the topic of radio, let me tell you what stations I tune into when I'm back at home in good ole Bardstown, KY:
W246AT (WBRT) 97.1 FM Bardstown, KY Country
WAMZ 95.7 FM Louisville, Kentucky Country
WNRW 98.9 FM Prospect, KY Top-40
WKMO 99.3 FM Lebanon Junction, KY Country
WLGX 100.5 FM Louisville, KY Hot AC
WLSK 100.9 FM Lebanon, KY country
Okay so the weird number/letters starting with "w" is the stations call sign. My personal favorite station that I like to listen to when I'm driving is 98.9 which plays the top 40 hits. It's called Radio Now and no suprise: it's owned by iHeart Radio. Honestly, Radio Now is keeping up with the pack of alternatives. It provides internet radio to tune in on (great for needing references on what a song is) and has podcasts and visuals. They understand that they have to adapt to what their listeners expect, so their internet availability is there. The website even has gossip news on it. Talk about convergence in media. And hey, it's Louisville's (the city closest to my small town) #1 station for hit music.
The only downside for me personally as a listener is the morning shows which put a hold on my music. That was when I would turn on Pandora, which is definitely a competitor with the basic FM stations.
But hey, check it out for yourself: here's the link.
