Nice @fervorcoulee.bsky.social !! So cool that you compared our playlists and even cooler that there is only one from each show: #widecutcountry and The Bluegrass Hour. We three did good! Algorithms suck!!
I had a 2-hour Christmas show. So did @theradiobrock.bsky.social Darcy did an hour. Between the 3 of us & 5 hours, we repeated 2 songs- Jane Hawley , Bill Grant-Delia Bell. I don't think algorithms could be as distinct- something to be said for having humans producing your listening space. #musicsky
