I got <A href="http://www.sirius.com">Sirius Satellite Radio</a> a few months ago and so far I like it a lot. There are a few decent ad-free music and comedy stations, but lately I've been listening to a talk radio show called <a href="http://www.youngturk.com">the Young Turks</a>. It's a political show that occasionally dips into pop culture and the odd internal workings of the show's hosts, Cenk Uygur and Ben Mankiewicz. The first thing I ever heard on the show was a great story about Cenk getting into an argument with a kid driving a Lexus while wearing a Von Dutch trucker hat.
In any case, the geniuses at <A href="http://www.sirius.com">Sirius</a> decided that having a good show on at 5:00PM was a bad idea and have put the <a href="http://www.bigeddieradio.com/main/default.aspx">Ed Schutlz</a> show in its place and bumped the Turks up to 6:00PM. Nothing against Ed Schutlz, but he's fairly boring and yesterday his show played "Rockin in the USA" by John Mellencamp during the intro. Yawn.
