i dig talk radio...
dunno why, it's mostly just background noise for me.

but anyways, i've found some cool stuff out there.

Art Bell is definitely a favorite, and many ppl may associate him to conspiracy theories, and while thats true to some extent, he gets some great guests on there who talk about all sorts of topics... from cell phones to sun spots and solar flares to nuclear threats.
Art only does weekends now, but George is just as entertaining, both of em are here (http://www.coasttocoastam.com/)

Then theres Howard Stern (http://www.howardstern.com), good for a laugh sometimes.

And then theres this guy.... Tom Leykis (http://www.blowmeuptom.com/), sometimes just unbelieveable. Probably defines "loud mouth asshole" for many people, a good shock jock none-the-less... and rarely boring.

Anybody else listen to this stuff?

I've been listening to Bob Edwards on XM Public Radio lately. You are right, good variety of topics and this show doesn't put any type of opinion or politics into it.

The only talk radio I gravitate towards these days is NPR.

Although a long time ago I used to listen to Howard Stern ... I remember when he switched form NBC to KROCK and then switched form afternoons to the mornings. Lost track of him in the mornings ... I'm a big news junkie and need my morning fix.

Sports radio is all that I can tolerate.

Dude me and my friends had the best idea ever last year during math class.
PORNO RADIO STATION!
The call sign would be KUNT. Get it. KUNT radio!

I thought it was funny...

TYLERXM actually has a pay channel called PlayBoy Radio (http://www.xmradio.com/programming/channel_page.jsp?ch=205)

I usually hate talk in the morning, I either like quiet or music. Sirius is nice because there are plenty of DJs that don't talk at all in the mornings- and no damn commercials. Haven't listened to FM or AM for about 6 months- don't feel like I've missed a thing.
