Please suggest a local radio station - for background news/music during am kitchen routine.

We don't even own a radio but I really like it especially in morning.

DC 101 morning zoo does not seem kid friendly

W top 103. 5 feels robotic

Kane show 99.5 is syndicated (far away too)

I grew up in 1990s - the last best decade. Poor radio.

97.1? That is 80's, 90's and today.

NPR station WAMU 88.5

just fyi I have the (free or nearly free) app "I Heart Radio" and I listen from my iPhone--there are stations all over that subscribe to it.

The only funny thing is you get their ads and local news. I was a transplant from Los Angeles and one day forgot that the weather info was for LA and ended up scurrying through a downpour, ha ha!

+2. Also the NPR One app... Like a radio stream, including some WAMU local stuff, but I can skip anything that I may not want the kids listening to

90.9

Classical and some news.

At home, I listen to NPR. I will also listen to online to Wait Wait Don't Tell Me and Splendid Table.

When I'm in the car, I like Jack FM when I'm close enough to pick up the signal, but you can listen online:

What type of music do you like? If "Pop" then the Tommy show on 94.5. If you truly like news, then NPR 88.5 or WTOP-sorry can't recall the station. #3 on my radio

107.3 Jack Diamond Morning Show

Uhh.....you are several years behind. Jack Diamond got canned years ago, and a new morning show (which is mentioned by the OP) is in it's place.

Does NPR play music? I never listen. I think music was part of the OP's requirements.

I think either 94.7 or 97.1 would work for the OP. Both stations don't talk much in the morning and have callers try to win various things.

Stick with Pandora. Pick an artist you like and create a station around that.

WMAL 630 AM and 105.9 FM

What morning show did OP mention that replaced Jack Diamond? OP refers to DC101 and 99.5. Not 107.3

I wasn't correcting the OP, I was correcting the prior poster.
