ESPN Radio, Fox News, CNet Radio...oh, if we're talking music then Ethel is alright if you like quasi-alternative rock, otherwise I listen to the X-country station, Fred, and XM Cafe off and on.

Been meaning to make the change over to a XM radio, since Dave Marsh supposedly has a show similiar to his stint on HFS' "Now Hear This" playing indie music.

We have had XM in my wife's mini van for a while now and really enjoy it although I feel we don't really use it's full enjoyment since we only listen to a few channels. My favorite is definately XMU (43) I also listen to MTV, the Rhyme (old school Hip-hop), and XM Comedy. My wife enjoys 80's on 8 and Top 20 on 20. We also enjoy U-Pop which features Dave Marsh.

U-Turn with Dave Marsh
An in-depth, unfettered listen into the seedy underbelly of what's new and indie and on the fringe of pop including new releases, exclusive interviews, in-studio performances, and the wealth of knowledge that DC radio legend Dave Marsh brings to the mic.

I could keep it on Top Tracks (46) all day long but lately I've been tuning to Fox News (121) for a good portion of my comute.

I'm looking to get Sirius instead... Less commercials and don't want Clear Channel "pollution" that XM Radio has (Clear Channel has a big investment in XM Radio). They also just added special separate left wing and right wing talk radio channels too recently. "Apolitical" Clear Channel probably won't let those come on XM Radio with their desire to not have any songs that cause people to "think" too much on their terrestrial stations.
