Been on a Radio Paradise kick lately, and they have an option for a “favorites mix” with songs you’ve rated highly. Tate McRae after Ravel’s Bolero sounded surprisingly good, and now it just went to Pat Metheny.

Doge staffers enter Noaa headquarters and incite reports of cuts and threats
Members reportedly sought access to IT systems at agency that Project 2025 has called ‘harmful to US prosperity’
