Tune into the same radio station you leave on for your cat

My cat has fits of loneliness while I’m away at work all day so I turn on a radio in my living room for noise that may or may not help. Regardless, from time to time throughout the day I tune into the same radio station and say things like “dang Toffee, ain’t these cats cookin’!?” so I can feel connected to her and her day. The station is 88.1 KJazz in L.A. for those interested

Getting a Radio

Recently my cat went blind and someone suggested keeping a radio playing so she could orient herself around the apartment. Got this little cute cheap one. Only plays AM/FM and that’s it. No Bluetooth or WiFi. I love it. No more decision fatigue choosing what to play or wasting my data/battery. We mainly listen to our public radio station. My cat is very well informed about current events now. 🩷🐱

Listening to the radio

A lost art to many young people. Streaming fatigue claims millions of lives every year, let somebody else choose the music for a while! In my first year living in a new city it’s been a great way to feel a bit more local as well, my favorite LA stations are KJAZZ 88.1 and KXLU 88.9. It’s so fun to flip through the airwaves and just listen to a bit here and there, not having to commit to anything or think about it too hard.

Local Radio station

Recently, my car's aux finally broke for good, so while I wait to replace it, I've been listening to my local alternative radio station. The traffic report is super helpful and I love my DJs!! Like, these are people in my community that have been on the air for at least 10+ years and I love that I can trust them. Sometimes I'll tune in and it's really not my thing but then the next song is so near and dear to my heart. Maybe it's because my friend's mom would pick us up either blasting Kendrick's DAMN or 92 The ZEW, but it's such a nice nostalgic feeling for me. It's crazy to tune into the radio and hear the same voice introduce the same song that I heard ten years ago with my bestie. So try pausing your playlist and let the DJs guide you next time you buckle up.
