What Radio stations do you listen to outside Ireland?

Careful_now!

With almost every radio station in the world broadcasting on the Internet, what stations or programes from around the world do you listen to?

I've listened to a few from the USA and Australia but haven't found One that I like. I sometimes would listen to BBC Radio 1 just for a change.

There are a few iphone apps that have all the stations on them, the one I use is WunderRadio and you can search my station name, city, or country.

Yakuza

I religiously listen to the Kermode and Mayo film review podcast, comes out every Friday. I listened to it live (BBC 5 Live) once or twice but the news and traffic reports interrupt the flow too much, so I prefer the podcast (and they top and tail the broadcast with extra stuff as well). That's probably the only non-Irish station I listen to with any regularity.

For years i have listened to Absolute radio in the uk (formerly virgin radio) they have many stations like absolute 90s and 80s BUT as of today they have geoblocked in on their website which means you have to be in uk to listen so am not happy about that, so am looking for another station to listen to from abroad.

Wtmj620 Milwaukee Wi.

Mainly for Packers, sorry Green Bay Packers football stuff.

Have a few syndicated 'shock jocks' as well but they can labour the point way too much,tiresome in the extreme.

L1011

Used to listen to SLAM!FM from Holland until a while ago, its playlist has degraded horribly though.

Tangatagamadda Chaddabinga Bonga Bungo

Sirius FM for Howard Stern. I'm just a big fan of his show.

Lovely Bloke

I listen to ABC News from Australia when in bed sometimes, it's like a morning show at that time, so the news is presented as current, which is good.

BBCs 4, 5 and 6Music regularly.

6 Music is an amazing station really.

cml387

Classic FM,in bed at night last thing before turning out the light.

Kiss FM (UK), 2dayfm and 92.1 (AU)

Real FM

BBC Radio 1 late night shows, 6 Music and Triple J in Aus. Joey Coco Diaz's podcasts are hilarious too.

Hah hah ha exactly my reaction, how you could take that lot back to back and not explode is impossible.

Throw in Charlie Sykes and it's a rantfest which would meltdown any self respecting audio device:D

No, and I don't listen anymore but it was the only station I've ever listened to regularly outside of Ireland. I will give them credit for how much bat**** stuff they could/can say between the three of them. I actually thought that glen beck was the most reasonable of the three.
(that's not saying much I know)

Dalmation 1

Talksport BBC Radio 2 and BBCWM Birmingham and the Black Country, BBCWM have a great football phone in Mon - Fri at 6

So do I. I don't listen to domestic radio anymore apart from news headlines maybe. BBC Radio 6 is excellent as is Radio 4 and R4 extra. Apart from those there is just so much choice. Life is too short to confine yourself to the dreary, small pond repetitive,low brow,insular,green jersey, muck that is Irish radio. That makes millionaires of the likes of Joe Duffy and Ryan Tubridy.

I acquire (by naughty means) the Opie and Anthony show that's on Sirius XM every morning. I was paying for an online subscription to the service for a couple of year but they shut that option down for non-US customers a while ago.

It's an uncensored comedy talk show with a couple of guys who used to be shockjocks in the 90's/early 00's (that profession is sort of dead now, hard to shock people any more) and i've learned so much insider stuff about radio from it that it makes it hard to listen to Irish broadcast radio at all any more. Plus it's hilarious.

I listen to BBC Radio 1 almost every day, I love the music they play and I think the Scott Mills show is brilliant! BBC Radio 5 Live is good at night time too for a change.
