One of my friends, who is a professional musician, shared this with me.
It is pretty cool!
The green dots on this map, represent radio stations all over the world, click on one of the dots and you will hear that station (of course with incredible reception) For example, there is a radio station halfway up the Irish coast that is playing Irish Pub music.
I thought this would be something the Peas would enjoy.

So much fun! I just listened to several stations from Burkina Faso where I was in the Peace Corps.

That’s delightful!
And I dare you all (not you from the UK, of course) to go to very northern Scotland and try to understand the accent - whoa!
Really, really fun - I could waste a lot of time on this!!! Thanks!

Thank you so much!
I discovered a Grateful Dead station about an hour away from me. Never knew it was there

What station is playing the pub music?

This is very cool. Thanks for sharing. As others have said, I see a lot of wasted time.
I am a radio listener. Even though I have Sirius and Apple Music I still find I listen to my local radio stations more, especially when in my car.

The map can be enlarged ..... I'm listening to a Venice Italy radio station and looking at some cruise ships docked there.

You can do this thru Alexa also. All you need is the radio call letters. This is how I listen to the radio for all over, besides podunk northern MN that has 3 stations.
