Radio station tier list, and why the talk station is underrated

Nobody leaves the talk station on. Everybody quotes it. I have watched three separate streams cycle straight past it and then repeat a bit from it twenty minutes later.

Putting it top tier and I will take the replies.

Correct, and the reason is that it is written to be overheard rather than listened to. It rewards you for leaving it on in the background during a long drive, which is the only time anyone actually does.
