I cannot keep this to myself. There is a website (radio.garden) where you can listen to radio stations all over the world for free. No log in. No email address. Nothing.

When the site loads, you are looking at the globe. Slide the little white circle over the green dots (each green dot is a radio station) until you find one you like.

I have been listening to this station in the Netherlands and it absolutely slaps.

EDIT: Replies tell me that this doesn't function in the UK without a VPN.

I can assure Greg Abbott that the God who he prays to in church this Christmas morning would not approve of sending human beings in the coldest month to Kamala Harris’ house. You know, welcoming the stranger and all that.

I would also like to see a quote-toot feature, but I also cant believe journalists would be willing to give up on the only genuinely independent platform available and go back to an owned and curated platform just because they are inconvenienced by one missing feature.

“Did you know that of $100 spent in a chain store, only $13 stays in the local economy? Of $100 spent at a locally owned store, $48 stays in the local economy.” A reminder of just one of many reasons to #ShopLocal as you do your last-minute #Christmas shopping. Especially when you support your local downtowns and main streets.
