https://www.nts.live/ baby!  live broadcast, plus the most insane archive of shows to dig through.  plus they hosted that whole autechre business.. i dont have a car or am/fm radio anymore but 'internet radio' has to be part of this discussion as the line between them is pretty fluid

recent favorites from nts

I love the blackest ever black radio show on NTS; formerly they had a spot on berlin community radio - you can still find those on soundcloud I believe.

KUTX - overall DJ's and programming but my fave is John Aielli - he's a local legend at this point. Aloof as hell, been a broadcaster for 4 decades but still manages to not remember where certain buttons are or how to queue something up. He rants and rambles sometimes for 10+ minutes instead of playing music or tangents randomly but often says something enlightening or hilarious.

KLBJ - Dudley & Bob (& Matt) - probably one of the most unusual and stereotype-defying local morning talk radio shows in the country. They started off in the 90s like any other silly wacky DJ shows but last 10-15 years or so it's been really dry, self-deprecating, meta, and self-aware. They don't even bother being subtle about their commercial plugs, they have a redneck audience they respect but refuse to pander to post-Trump, and there's an intern turned producer who is an American version of Karl Pilkington. 

KOOP - Jamacian Gold on Sundays, Lounge Show on saturdays, there's a 6 hour block of prog rock then IDM/post-rock then really out there stuff on Sunday evenings, and during the week there's a lot cool underground or obscure rock shows. Tuesdays from 3-6 PM (i.e. commute time) there's a dude who plays kvlt black metal, a older dude who sounds like Hank Hill who plays obscure late 60 / early 70s rock, then a long-running LGBTQ talk show. I love that station. 

KRVX - local college radio - some shows are hilariously stereotypical but some are pretty damn well curated.

KUT - NPR affiliate for my normie-mid-30s-centrist-liberal-dad needs

Yep Tom Ravenscroft always plays excellent stuff (known and unknown) of all genres. If you listen to one of his shows guarantee you'll come away with a few artists you'll want to discover more from.

One small pedantic thing, it's KVRX :)

Art from Jamaican Gold is an Austin treasure.

I also like the Austin classical station (KMFA, 89.5), even if they have a bizarre obsession with Haydn.

KAZI 88.7 also has some good stuff. They actually run their own reggae show right after Jamaican Gold (I prefer it to Hip Hop Hooray, I'm sorry but that show is corny as hell). Different take than Jamaican Gold, more modern stuff (doesn't shy away from the digi-reggae).

And I gotta do it...plug my own radio show on SubFM every other Friday 8-10 CST (next show 9-14). Check my mixes thread for show archives here:  https://forum.watmm.com/topic/95058-very-old-member-idi-amin-new-mixes/

D'oh yes KVRX indeed

need to check out 88.7, I have stumbled upon them before but had no idea about the reggae show

KVRX had a great reggae show called "When Roots Attack" years ago, same DJ has filled in for Art on occasion

you mean KOOP? (for those not in Austin, freq. 91.7 is KOOP during the day & KVRX at night)

Yes and no - When Roots Attack was a KVRX show years and years ago, early morning slot before the station switched over at 9 AM, and Jamaican Gold is a current KOOP show, noon-2 pm Sundays.

Indeed, a radio gem.

He read out my text once which requested a new Autechre session - he said "well, you never know"
