Pro tip: satellite radio saved my sanity on a 14-hour shift rotation

I do 24 on, 48 off and the silence in the truck between calls was driving me nuts. Tried podcasts but I kept missing the punchlines over the scanner chatter. Last month I paid $11 for a satellite radio trial just to test it out and now I never touch AM/FM anymore. The trick is locking in 6 preset channels that match your mood so you can switch without fumbling. Weather talk and old rock stations are okay but this one indie channel plays deep cuts that make the 2 a.m. patrols bearable. Anyone else got a go-to channel for those dead hours when you're just waiting around?

Funny how we all end up curating our own little worlds just to get through the noise.
