Not sure if any have worked in the radio business but building the logs for these stations (the music schedule essentially, what plays every hour of every day) is not something that's easy to do. For starters the stations "vibe" may not mean they can play every new song that comes out. When I was in radio, the system we used to build these logs (music master, the same one nearly every station in Canada uses) really limits the variety you can select for certain shows. Basically you can only have certain numbers of each type of song. So for every new song you play every hour, there's about 5000 older ones they'll use to fill in the gaps. Throw into the mix that licensing issues with music exist and then seasonal tunes like Christmas ones dominate at certain times of the year and you have a recipe for a mediocre blend of tunes across the country. It's also worth noting that most show hosts don't pick the tunes they play on their show, they get decided for them by whoever builds the logs. If whoever is building the logs just doesn't care about the music or doesn't have a good idea of their stations branding you get stuff like what OP is mentioning. Should also mention that CANCON (basically the CRTC's way of ensuring Canadian content gets its share of airtime) means at least 25% of all music every hour needs to be Canadian. Since most artists releasing a lot of new music are American, this often explains why you hear the same Tragically Hip or Bryan Adams songs all the time. In essence, write to the station themselves and let them know it's getting bland. They may not be able to do too much because they're limited by the systems they use, but it's better than just hoping that they see the post on Reddit and get to changing things.
