Here are 11 things you\u2019ll surely hear whenever you turn on the radio.<\/p>\n<p>  <B>1. Canned morning shows<\/b><\/p>\n<p>  Who doesn\u2019t love to wake up to some cold canned banter between two people who most probably hate each other?<\/p>\n<p>  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/c.tenor.com\/f7_2YLXQzHIAAAAC\/good-morning-vietnam-robin-williams.gif\" width=\"70%\"><\/p>\n<p>  <B>2. The same 20 tracks<\/b><\/p>\n<p>  There are only ever 20 pieces of music ever available at any given moment, and you will hear them until your ears bleed. <\/p>\n<p>  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/c.tenor.com\/eTfV35nl5l4AAAAC\/same-shit-different-summer-tanner-buchanan.gif\" width=\"70%\"><\/p>\n<p>  <B>3. Olivia Rodrigo\u2019s Driver\u2019s License<\/b><\/p>\n<p>  This song starts with a car beeping, and I jumpscare every time. Songs played on the radio should not have car noises. Vote for me for president to ensure this law gets passed.<\/p>\n<p>  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/c.tenor.com\/xGz0fdHQSlcAAAAC\/olivia-rodrigo-olivia-rodrigo-deja-vu-live.gif\" width=\"70%\"><\/p>\n<p>  <B>4. The worst news you\u2019ve ever heard<\/b><\/p>\n<p>  While the service driver just shrugs his shoulders and lights up a cigarette.<\/p>\n<p>  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/c.tenor.com\/8YdgikXYxHEAAAAd\/breaking-news.gif\" width=\"70%\"><\/p>\n<p>  <B>5. Traffic updates in traffic<\/b><\/p>\n<p>  Thank you for telling me that there\u2019s traffic around me Anthony, how could I have figured that out if you weren\u2019t here?<\/p>\n<p>  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/c.tenor.com\/aHWoOcd5iK0AAAAC\/traffic.gif\" width=\"70%\"><\/p>\n<p>  <B>6. The worst ads you\u2019ve ever heard<\/b><\/p>\n<p>  THERE IS A PARTY TONIGHT AND IT IS UNLIKE ANY PARTY THAT HAS EVER HAPPENED BEFORE. SEE YOU AT TRAIN STATION MAR MKHAIL.<\/p>\n<p>  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/c.tenor.com\/6ABqohh2j0UAAAAd\/adele-hello.gif\" width=\"70%\"><\/p>\n<p>  <B>7. Ad-free music hour<\/b><\/p>\n<p>  If it\u2019s ad free why do you need to interrupt every few minutes to remind me its ad free?<\/p>\n<p>  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/c.tenor.com\/JX-KI9Kz_GIAAAAC\/for-free-adam-sandler.gif\" width=\"70%\"><\/p>\n<p>  <B>8. Unhinged callers<\/b><\/p>\n<p>  Give people a platform and they will really tell you the most insane thing you\u2019ve ever heard. If you\u2019re looking for some A+ gossip about the local neighbourhood la7am, tune in.<\/p>\n<p>  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/c.tenor.com\/NZJcODZYCY8AAAAM\/pretty-kim-kardashian.gif\" width=\"70%\"><\/p>\n<p>  <B>9. Talk shows you know are on TV<\/b><\/p>\n<p>  It feels weird hearing them on the radio, like you\u2019re intruding on an intimate conversation or like you\u2019re a second-class citizen having to sneak a peek at what the elites are talking about.<\/p>\n<p>  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/c.tenor.com\/Dizye0MWr5AAAAAd\/conan-latenight.gif\" width=\"70%\"><\/p>\n<p>  <B>10. Lo-Fi Fayrouz<\/b><\/p>\n<p>  They love to play this track, and I have to unfortunately say, it is a bop.<\/p>\n<p>  <img src=https:\/\/c.tenor.com\/aNV5XbmWLCYAAAAC\/fairouz-arabic-songs.gif\" width=\"70%\"><\/p>\n<p>  <B>11. Every station is the number 1 station<\/b><\/p>\n<p>  If we\u2019re all number 1, who\u2019s number 1? We can\u2019t all seriously be the top-rated best show in town to ever exist. Someone get to the bottom of this.<\/p>\n<p>  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/c.tenor.com\/IKSYx2M8LUQAAAAC\/number-one-one-number.gif\" width=\"70%\"><\/p>\n<p>
