Best 2 hours!

I love Dennis and Judy together again! They bring out the best in each other!

NJ1015 Pocket Edition

For those who enjoy the station, they might enjoy the app. It has lots of ads to keep it free to use but it's not the most user friendly. Plus most people who listen to it would rather listen to it on the radio,...not an app.

To many commercials and breaks

Love listening to the radio channel and the talk shows but this station has entirely to much breakage. Host will have a good convo and boom break for 20 minutes for repetitive commercials.

Pot ad

I didn’t mind having to see a hospital ad when I opened the app. Now it’s an ad for pot. Goodbye.
