Ah, adolescence. I think I'm still trying to figure out who Tre is at the moment, hence why I try to categorize myself. I think you guys might know about me this a little better than I do MYSELF, actually.
Kinda reminds me of the way things are in those cliques you see in crappy teen movies and the like; I could fit in a lot of them but I'm still yet to figure out I don't really need to conform to any of them like every protagonist does when they have that big epiphany.

I tend to go back and forth between embracing being weird because that's who I am and being ashamed of being weird because it means I've failed at being normal.
I never saw The Breakfast Club. My sister seems to think it's a really good movie. That and The Shawshank Redemption are the ones she always tries to get me to watch YNTKT

Anonus you've got me thinking about WSNY
For the longest time they had "Dino and Stacy" (Dino Tripodis and Stacy McKay), then they added Shawn Ireland (who's been on many other Columbus-area stations) and it became "Dino, Stacy, and Shawn". Then in 2007 Stacy left, leaving it as just "Dino and Shawn", but she returned in 2010 and replaced Shawn.
So now they're back where they started, Dino and Stacy.
I can't remember what the frequencies of the radio stations back home were.
Here I don't have a radio, I just listen to BBC stations via iPlayer. There was never anything special about Stroud FM or Gloucester FM, and Heart Gloucestershire is identical to every other Heart Network station, i.e. shit.

Honestly, the only time I listen to the radio anymore is in the car.
Because when you're driving yourself 40 minutes each direction to/from school/work all alone, it gets boring as fuck

My car is from the distant year of 1994 and as such it is equipped with a cassette player
One of these days I shall acquire a cassette tape and see if the 18-year-old player still works
I always found those converter things that let you play your iPod in your car cassette slot to be rather funny in a roundabout way.
Also, I think I'd have a simple enough schedule for my station: a entertainment talk and music review show interspersed with a ton of variety in the morning, with a certain theme of music for each day's programming afterward up to 8:00 pm. I dunno the details, but New Wave Wednesdays would definitely be a Thing. Maybe there could be Metal Mondays too.
And then after 8, it'd have EDM all the way. D&B in particular for the late night hours.

I hope you realize how preposterously evil that is when spoken aloud. It isn't even credible as mustache twirling super-villainy. It is just too surreal.
Also, one more thing on my radio: I'd have to make sure that I didn't hire any crap DJs. Like, those dudes you want to punch through your antenna wouldn't be there.
I'd want charismatic DJs though. Otherwise the phone in contests would be dead!
You know what irritates me? When DJs feel the need to interrupt the song repeatedly to remind you that you're listening to Pete Tong or whoever. Like, who cares?
I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat
Yes, fuck Clear Channel
Nexstar and Sinclair appear to have desires to become their television equivalents
The fact that traditional television is slipping in relevance (especially with the younger demographics) will probably be a boon to the hyperconsolidators when it comes to consolidating but in the end I hope they don't win

Usually, anyway
Since then I've been more trying to work out when weird is a problem and when it's OK. Still figuring that out, I think.

I haven't listened to the radio in years. I have a CD player in my car and you know what that means DOPESMOKER BOTH WAYS
There's no cool metal or any kind of electronic music

Also talking over breaks and solos. Grr.
Then I would kill their family
