Bears Radio

Does anyone else find the Chicago Bears radio broadcasts on 780/105.9 unlistenable due to the insane number of commercials shoehorned into the game? Not talking about the recorded spots between quarters, at timeouts, etc. The ridiculous number of live reads/sponsorships after almost every play is what is beyond irritating. Everything is sponsored, and I get it, Audacy is trying to make as much cash as possible. But at some point it damages the product, and I think they are well past that point. Usually don’t listen to the radio broadcasts but today I was in the car and had no option. I am sure they realize they have a captive audience and if you’re a Bears fan and not near a TV you have to listen to their broadcast so the possibility of driving away listeners is pretty small. Nowhere else to go.
