Anyone else got to the stage where they simply cannot listen to any of the Rayo stations due to the constant advert or DJ reminder every 10 minutes? Surely to God, the dj's themselves must be sick of it.

I used to be an avid Planet Rock listener, I've now switched to radio Caroline 😡😡.

The best podcast content has raised what listeners expect from audio storytelling. But it's also created a situation where radio increasingly feels like it's trying to compete with something it can't fully become while also trying to remain something different. The live, scheduled, communal experience of radio is genuinely valuable and it's being pulled in a direction that doesn't always honour what makes it distinct from a podcast with a schedule.
