I think B96 and 104.3 still have live board ops overnight.

Then...why not interject a LIVE traffic report on WBBM - WCFS?
It gets old when at 5:08, "the accident occurred at 2 o'clock" or "the freeway has been closed overnight" (I-55, 2023) or is this something that is job specific?

KNX Los Angeles KNX News 97-1FM, and 1010 Wins (NYC) are live & local overnight. Don't know of the others. KYW Philadelphia has traffic overnights.

Am I waxing nostalgic or is it better to have 100000 podcasts?

I'm getting old. Um, I am old!
