The constant ads talking about how the radio channel is ad-free and number one<\/b><\/p>\n<p>  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/media.giphy.com\/media\/N4hHsZoD3edqw\/giphy.gif\"width=\"70%\"><\/p>\n<p>  Yes, please interrupt my \u201cnon-stop music\u201d to tell me that I get to enjoy \u201cnonstop music\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>  <b>2.
