Radio Across America

I recently went on driving trip. While giving much time to what was being broadcasted, finding the sad truth radio outside the atleast mid size city is all but gone. The midsize cities had some Jacks & Kims. Talk radio was mostly your usual suspects across the board. Very little local talent anywhere along the way. Rural America is nothing more than a ghost town. The little towns that once were known for the pitstop for a Stuckys are all gone. Most buildings are boarded up and maybe just one gas station if that. Radio in those towns was a distant signal. Gospel radio can be found but it is almost all gone too. Radio is very hard to find and makes me wonder if Farmer Bill even owns a radio? This country has changed and it is sad to see such elimination of pasttimes like small town radio and heck even the small town itself. I hope that someday soon those small towns will come back again. People we are all in trouble. Those small towns were the first in a trend and this trend is sure too spread with outsourcing and voice tracking effecting all of us in all lines of work.

My total milage 2200 miles. Houston Radio doesn't sound so bad too me now.
