Women hope to advance in MVC tournament. Two columns ago I bashed the radio. I don't regret it, but I got some requests asking what channels are worth listening to, if you have to turn on the radio that is. Because I honestly don't listen to the radio much at all, I can't do a full assessment of the airways in Des Moines, but here's a quick rundown. NPR is always good with a dose of news and tunes.
Oldies are all right, sometimes, but listen with caution, as they are already old and overplayed.
Lazer 103.3 does a good job of playing tons of Metallica, plus you'll get tohear songs by NIN, Beastie Boys and other good groups. If you're into hard rock and listening to commentators degrading women and talking about sex and pot, look no further. Frankly, I'm not much into hard rock and not a fan of their commentators. But it's much better than Kiss 107.5 or Star 102.5. At least Lazer has some sort of variety and sticks to a genre and plays quality hard rock.
