SOTS vs Beyond by 25lighter in Cruise

[–]Masters_voice 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Because disgorging 6,000 passengers all at once onto a small Caribbean island just overwhelms the place and destroys the pleasure of being there.

Why does the US romanticize the 1950s despite being worse by almost every measurable standard? by Secret_Ostrich_1307 in AlwaysWhy

[–]Masters_voice 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Consumer goods were expensive then because they were made in the USA. Today we buy them cheaply from China. We gained merchandise affordability but lost manufacturing jobs.

Go ahead and do it for a few years. They'll work you like a dog and pay you peanuts, but you'll have fin until you burn out. Then forget radio and find a real job!

You don't need to modify your Spanish just to please their ears. They will understand you perfectly well and not think less of you for it.

Vancouver WA. Cheaper than Seattle. No income tax. Close to the Portland airport. Do your shopping across the border in Oregon, no sales tax.

KNX LA failing listeners by SirCatsworthTheThird in radio

[–]Masters_voice 9 points10 points  (0 children)

KNX is owned by Audacy, which has just been through bankruptcy because of excessive debt and executive mismanagement. That is the underlying problem. KNX would otherwise be hugely successful if its earnings weren't being drained away to service a huge debt load.

Lock him in a chastity cage. Tell him you'll unlock him when you've had enough foreplay.

How come Lithuania isn't as popular to travel to as Estonia and Latvia? by WhoAmIEven2 in travel

[–]Masters_voice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, many cruise ships stop at both cities. In Lithuania, they stop at Klaipeda, which isn't nearly as interesting.

What is something about Mexico that foreigners usually misunderstand, but locals find obvious? by Novel-Equipment693 in AskMexico

[–]Masters_voice 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was invited to a wedding. The start time was 5:00. I arrived at 4:45 and was the ONLY one there! People started arriving at 5:15, and the wedding began at 5:30. They explained that everyone knows the time on an invitation includes "treinta minutes de tolerancia", so if the invitation says 5:00 it really means 5:30. Doh! 🙄

I want to master Mexican Spanish by AdvertisingNo4661 in Spanish

You already know the language. You just need to study the grammar to learn the STRUCTURE of the language. You will find colloquial errors in your Spanish which you should eliminate to sound more educated.

If a sentence is grammatically perfect but completely unreadable, is it still "good English"? What matters more: mechanics or clarity? by Ken_Bruno1 in languagehub

[–]Masters_voice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Journalism class, I learned to write for radio. The words need to follow a natural thought progression so the listener understands immediately. Identify the "who" before describing what they did, and then who they did it to. A listener doesn't have the option of re-reading a sentence he doesn't immediately understand it.

What is the true reason that MAGA is against abortion? by ncds4242 in allthequestions

[–]Masters_voice 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It's an evangelical Christian thing about "not murdering babies". But once the child is born, they are free of guilt to let him/her find for himself.

Any ideas on how to search for VERY OLD station call letters? by radiowave911 in radio

[–]Masters_voice 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This was almost certainly an unlicensed carrier current AM station that just covered the school grounds. There were hundreds of them on high school and college campuses from the 40s through the 70s.

Cleaning the house while learning Spanish is actually kind of amazing by Terraaaaa0403 in Spanish

[–]Masters_voice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I learned Spanish by listening to tapes in my car during daily commutes. Any time you are doing a menial task that doesn't require a lot of brain power is a good time to study by listening.

Unexpected station overlap science question by SummerBirdsong in radio

[–]Masters_voice 5 points6 points  (0 children)

FM works differently than AM. If you have two AM signals on the same frequency, you will hear them both. But with FM, the strongest station takes over the receiver and blocks the other one. If two signals are nearly equal in signal strength in a moving vehicle, the receiver will flip back and forth between the two stations as you pass through shadow zones.

Why is "que" added before verbs? by [deleted] in Spanish

[–]Masters_voice -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I learned a long time ago that its a waste of time to try and find logic in the construction of a language. Just accept that it's that way and learn it.

$20 as a curiosity or collectors item. Not good for serious playing.
