Never miss traffic on the 3's again

WBZ-AM is now streaming on the 'Net. The sound is a bit tinny and you have to register first (helpful hint: They don't do any sort of address verification, so by all means sign up as [email protected]) but hey, it IS AM, and besides, there's never a pledge week on 'BZ (anybody else hear Bob Oakes on 'BUR yesterday pleading for pre-pledge pledges so you don't have to find another station to listen to during Pledge Week?). Oh, and instead of commercials (well, there is one initial ad for Monster), you get their station promos, some of which are pretty good, in an awful sort of way, like the one for their weather reports that starts:
What's pasty white and cold?
My wife!
Hat tip to Melissa.

Yay!
I've actually been wishing for a while that they would start streaming their broadcasts. They're pretty much the only radio station I listen to around here, with the exception of occasionally tuning in a weekend show on WERS.

This is so great! My radio gets exactly one station in all of AM/FM, trapped in a giant brick building surrounded by computer equipment, electronics and shielding. Thank goodness that one station is BCN. This will be a nice balance. :-)
