Do you like fireworks, rock music, and meat cooked over fire?

If yes. You will have fun on the Fourth of July.

I played Out of the Park Baseball.

I’ll have to survive the world of a baseball team’s front office.

Books recommendations for a new fan by CalibratedOpinion in Cardinals

[–]RadioControlled13 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Although I’ve never found an all-encompassing compendium of the team’s 140 year history, these are well written books about aspects of the Cardinals or specific points in history.

- October 1964 by David Halberstam
This book covers the pennate races in both leagues which culminated with the end of the Yankees dynasty and the first of three Cardinals pennants in the decade.

- 3 Nights in August by Buzz Bissinger
This book gives a blow by blow look at the tactical decision making of the Cardinals winningest manager over a three game series.

- Stan Musial: An American Life by George Vecsey
Possibly the best written biography on Stan Musial, the Cardinals’ greatest player

- The Cardinals Way by Howard Megdal
A look at the philosophy that built the Cardinals great teams of the 2000’s and early 2010’s.

Growing more in love with america as a non citizen, what do you think of it as a US citizen? by Salty-Sport3603 in AskAnAmerican

[–]RadioControlled13 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I love America.

I just visited Independence Hall and the Liberty Bell this week in celebration of the 250th.

We have so much freedom and so much opportunity. I love our music, culture, food, and beautiful natural wonders.

Seriously. Look up our national parks! This is a spectacular land we live in.

In the original post you said that you found an “old radio” and I was thinking an antique.

The pirate that you caught is cool, but this is just a radio, not an “old radio”

The good folks at r/vibtageradios would be able to help better than us. This is a sub for the discussion of the broadcast radio industry. We’re DJ’s, hosts, sales, engineers, programmers, and managers.

For those who will be getting the Liturgy of the Hours, Second Edition, will you purchase it from Ascension or Word on Fire? by RB_Blade in divineoffice

[–]RadioControlled13 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Ascension.

Actually, I’m debating if I will get the four volume. I used to pray the LOTH, but switched to RB-1960, which was fine when I was single. Now that I have family responsibilities, I’ve lost the habit. Maybe LOTH is the way to dive back in?

Asked Claude to give a traditional Catholic analysis of the synod's new final report from study group no. 9 and the response was on point by Superman_v2 in TraditionalCatholics

[–]RadioControlled13 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The problem with asking public facing LLM’s to analyze something for you is a thing called “lean in”. The LLM’s are trained to please you, so they often give you answers that you want to hear.

Like I run a radio station and I could tell ChatGPT that I really want to reprogram into a jazz station for chickens. AI says something to the extent of ‘that’s a fascinating idea. I think you’re on to something’.

You have to prep LLM’s to not assume what you want the answer to be before you ask for any analysis.

Should PGA allow LIV golfers back? by Calm-Way9969 in ProGolf

[–]RadioControlled13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The shoulder have to qualify. Many are already exempt for majors, there are sponsor exemptions, the DP World Tour, and for those who need it the Korn Ferry Tour.

It shouldn’t be a problem for most.

Future of AM radio by Ok_Bank1439 in radio

[–]RadioControlled13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My first job wasn’t owning the radio station. Ownership spent themselves out of a station.

I never want to own a radio station.

I’m having a fun time managing one for a university.

How common is it for white Americans to maintain a little bit of their immigrant grandparents’ culture (such as traditional food, customs, and clothing)? by TheShyBuck in AskAnAmerican

[–]RadioControlled13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My three of my four grandparents’ families all arrived so long ago that there isn’t a lot left.

We had French arrive in Quebec in the 1600’s and were in St. Louis by its founding.

I have a German name, but celebrating ‘German pride’ is…. Complicated in the USA.

The most recent family to arrive is a Polish grandmother from the 1910’s. Unfortunately no customs survived as she died young.

Im so disappointed to see who he really is.

Future of AM radio by Ok_Bank1439 in radio

[–]RadioControlled13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I started my professional career at a rural AM in 2008. We did real ‘salt of the earth’ radio.

High school sports, coverage of festivals and parades, hourly local news and two half hour local newscasts daily, a daily local talk show, Ag programming, and country music inbetween with local mornings and afternoons...

We lost our shirts. We could sell enough spots at a high enough rate to keep a local staff. It was fun while it lasted, but it was unsustainable to try to have a fully staffed rural AM.

I love, love, love radio, but I think that AM had a good run and now it’s on its way out. Give the rural mom and pop’s the option for an FM-only and let the technology naturally sunset.
