I used to stay up late and listen to the marine band on the short wave radio I had (not a musical band) as well as whatever I could pull from other countries. If the weather conditions were just right, you could get Eastern blok nations.
Right now I'd love to listen to radio...just not USA stations playing all the stupid political ads.

I've been a fan of AM and FM radio since the early 80s when Walkmans came out, to listening to local daytime talk radio when I got a job as a medical courier, then finally discovering Art Bell in 1996 in the middle of the night working as a lowly lab tech.
During that time I also dabbled in Short Wave radio because I was fascinated with listening to things from halfway around the world.
Ever since smart phones have been around, I've been able to listen to Pandora Radio and the likes where ever I go. Either on headphones or in the car.
I came across a phone app called Radio Garden. I've been using it endlessly since I downloaded it a few months ago.
What it basically is, is "Google Earth" with land markers where every radio station is broadcasting from. There are thousands and thousands of stations you can listen to. You can also search by music genre or search for talk radio.
I feel a hot wind on my shoulder,
I dial it in from south of the border .
I hear the talking of the DJ.
Cant understand, just what does he say?
I'm-on-a Mexican radio.
I'm on a, Mexican Oh Oh, radio.

Hope to get some good Japanese jazz music stations going.
I'll show some Russian stations that play some heavy kick ass blues guitar music.

I stream WKHR 91.5 Cleveland when I cook dinner, it's a mix of big band, jazz and swing music.
