I bet there’s a way to literally have NPR mixed in every hour with the live broadcast version I hear on FM, maybe using their podcast link (NPR News Now). They seem to have an Apple music link, so maybe there’s a way to get it to play on the hour every time it’s updated.

I’d look into it but I don’t mind just listening to my local FM, lol. KCRW kinda already has my weird vibe of music.
