I’ll get a bit personal for this post, as it will be my final one for the site.

I have enjoyed writing about Sirius Radio for the last year and a half. Even though I appreciate the frustration many of you have with the service issues and can relate to some of them, I still intend to keep my Sirius Radio subscription for a long time. I love the value of having all of this variety at my fingertips. Regular radio to me is on the way out. Satellite Radio and Internet Radio are far and above much better for quality and entertainment.

I used to dream of the day when I would get to tune in to a Radio Station that would be uncensored and barrier free. Even with the CRTC monitoring some of the stuff going on, like the American FCC, they are not touching this stuff and laying off the talent in order for them to work and deliver the goods.

Thanks a ton to everyone for your comments, criticisms and kind words. I appreciate every one of the messages sent. Hope you all continue to find reasons to stay with Sirius, and hope those at Sirius Customer Service who have read these posts take customer concerns seriously.

Cheers,

Dann

Sirius 114 Doctor Radio is informative and often entertaining.

It is not just programming about general medicine as a whole, you can hear informative shows about different medical sub-topics of specialty. On many of these shows you can call in and write out your questions for the panels. They will answer as many different questions as they can get to. Many Americans will send in their questions in hope of getting some informative answers since it essentially might be interpreted as a free mini-consult!

Sirius 114 Doctor Radio may enlighten you and open your eyes to some health issues that you may not be aware of. Spend some time in the Doctor’s Office at Sirius 114.

Sirius has the great power of reaching people and giving them the best of theater of the mind. The Sirius Comedy Stations are a great example of Theater of the mind at its’ finest.

When listening to any of the Sirius Comedy Stations, you can pretty much imagine the sights and smells of smoky nightclubs or great concert halls. You can hear someone delivering their material onstage and the audience interaction.

On Sirius 106 Raw Dog you get the best uncensored comedy anywhere on the dial. No holds barred comedy from some of the best in the business past, present and future.

Sirius 105 Laugh USA is considered comedy for the whole family. You can also hear some great material from many comedians who regularly appear on television talk-shows and sitcoms.

SIrius 103 Blue Collar Radio is a great Sirius Comedy Station with some of the best in “Redneck” comedy. Comedians have taken the lead in getting material out there thanks to some of the great work of many American comics with southern accents!

Sirius 106 The Foxxhole will have some comedy shows from several great comics. It is not a 24/7 comedy channel but still features some great moments and great material. Jamie Foxx, whom the station is named, delivered some many memorable performances in his earlier career days. He still has a sharp wit and great delivery.

The Sirius Comedy Stations are all great entertainment. You can find comedy on other channels as well, notably Howard Stern’s Stations. Check them all out for a great laugh or two!

Sirius Radio has a ton of great rock  music stations. Most terrestrial radio formats are either New Rock, Classic Rock and then “Oldies Rock” type stations.

With Sirius, you have great rock stations on expanded programming formats. The two best comparisions that demonstrate this are Sirius Classic Vinyl 14 and Sirius Classic Rewind. Classic Vinyl is essentially the format of a Classic Rock Station from terrestrial radio but with a ton more variety. Classic Rewind is the second generation of Classic Rock. So with Rewind, you have stuff that is more recent but has made way into the Classic Rock category.

Sirius 19 The Boneyard is Classic Hard Rock with a sprinkle of Classic Heavy Metal. This is great for fans of Metal who might be getting on in years. Metal fans getting old? What a concept!

The Sirius rock stations under the decades category give a great time machine example of the development of rock and roll. When you start at 50′s on 5 up through 90′s on 9 you see the evolution of rock and roll music. You get the best examples of popular songs which cracked the Billboard Top 40 lists.

Check out all the Sirius Rock Stations on the dial. How often can you hear multiple rock and roll formats on terrestrial radio? No more than 2, I am sure of it.

Many people purchase subscriptions to Sirius Radio on the attraction of commercial free music. This is arguably one of the biggest reasons people are drawn to Sirius Radio.

In order to bring in revenue, you can find advertisements on many Sirius Radio Stations. All outside of the music categories.  Advertising on Sirius Radio apparently is a pricey investment but as many company have attested, it can pay off tremendously.  Many companies advertise products on the channels of Howard Stern. When the King of All Media himself voices many of these commercials, the companies are able to even attract more of the audience to product.

There was some musing some time ago that SiriusXM would start allowing advertisements on the music stations. This discussion seems to now have thankfully waned. Surely SiriusXM PR people realized that there would be a major massive backlash if this were allowed to happen.

The risk would be too great. Many customers who were drawn to Sirius because of commercial free music would no doubt vacate their subscriptions.

Commercial free music provides a soundtrack. That soundtrack of having very little interruption provides the listener with the most enjoyable listening experience. This is the big separator which distances Sirius radio from terrestrial radio.

SiriusXM needs to continue making the music stations commercial free. Subscribers are now used to this, so changing this concept would spell disaster for the company.

Sirius Radio has some excellent country music radio stations. I have reviewed them here in previous entries but it is time for a review and revisit. It is because of Sirius Radio that country music fans are able to hear the best from all genres and sub-genres.

Sirius 60 the Highway spins mostly newer country music. This is music that would appear on the top 40 country lists at the current time. So recent and current popular country hits appear on this Sirius radio station.

Sirius 61 is Sirius Prime Country. This station prides itself on having a 90′s and more programming format. There was a period of time in the 1990′s where there was a slew of more memorable tracks which made a ton of cash and dominated country music radio.

Sirius 62 is The Roadhouse. This Sirius country music station is drenched with history. Some of the great classic country music is spun on this endearing format loved by those in that generation and more. The Roadhouse has introduced many younger listeners to roots of popular country music.

Sirius 63 Outlaw Country is my personal favourite of the Sirius country music stations. Outlaw Country is the brainchild of Little Steven Van Zandt, who also founded Sirius 25 Little Steven’s Underground Garage. The OC as it is known to listeners for the most part plays great Americana music. I would define Americana music as country with the rebellious edge. The popularity of this type of country is growing so much that Americana Music has been given a category of its’ own at the Grammy Awards.

Finally I must give a nod to Sirius 62, Willie’s Place. Willie’s Place plays a nice mix of the early Outlaw Country type stuff plus other music that Willie Nelson himself approves and enjoys. Lots of cowboy stories abound and abundant!

Although I do not really consider bluegrass music to be country music, I acknowledge it is similar in many ways. With that in mind, check out Sirius 65 Bluegrass Junction. Bluegrass Junction plays a ton of stuff from pioneer Bill Munroe all the way to Bluegrass ambassador and mainstay Ricky Skaggs.
