ATR is the only talk program i listen to on sirius and look forward to it when i get off work. they moved ATR races once to it's own channel, now they pre-empt it with tennis, just doesn't make sense. tennis and soccer, you may as well watch paint dry.

I'm with you dd...since discovering sirius and "atrab" I admit I'm addicted. Sometimes when I get off work at 5:30 am I catch myself taking the long way home so I can hear the end of the replay of that days show(4a-7a). I call it cable radio and it's well worth the price. Byk does a wonderful job bringing news, interviews and live races calls to all the listeners. Wayne's cool too.

i'm lucky, i only work a few minutes from the house so i miss about the first 10 minutes.
one really cool thing, that 8-10 hr car trip and NEVER touch the radio dial.

I could care less about Howard Stern. I would like to find a station that plays music that isn't what I wanted them to play 20 years ago. I still like that stuff just want to hear hat's new and I don't mean top 40

ATRAB is puttng me n a different routine and it's bad
I used to go for bike rides now I just listen to the show. Listen to Steve interview the stars of the "industry" and talk about horses and races.
If you like music, you'll love sirius.

channel 7= 70's
channel 8 = 80's
channel 9 = 90's and now
channel 21 = alt rock

all commercial free, only drawback is you might get into an accident flipping through all the channels. There are about 70 music channels alone

Channel 16 - The Vault

For those who may not be aware, if you have a Sirius subscription, you have access to a lot of their programming over the internet (I think all the music?). For an extra $2 or $3 bucks a month you get a "premium" feed i.e. higher Bandwidth. Just click on "listen Online" from their home page. I spend more time listening at my computer than in the car.

Aww how sweet. We take our football very seriously down here.hehe I have been going to Tiger games since I can remember. My first crush,,,ok ok before Randy Romeo, whos family used to race agianst mine down here, was Tommy Hodson, whom I got to meet in the Tiger Locker room one day, lets just say there was a table, towel and one very embarrassed highschool girl (me). My coach that took us on the tour knew of my crush and decided that I should show him how we rub down horses who has sore muscles since his hammy was hurting. My friend still teases me about that to this day.

Them thar is fighting words!!! hehe Gosh my grandmother couldnt stand The Gators. In her sweetest grandmother voice use to say "I would just love to take that visor off his head and just stomp all over it". I thought we would all just die from laughing at her. And everytime she saw Spurrier that is what she said.

tommy hodson, thats a blast from the SEC past. hodson's sr. year, i sat sat in Legion Field and watched him kill us!
Bama-Lsu is a strange series. Baton Rouge used to be our second home. Bama didn't lose in BR for 30 plus years, but Lsu can win at Bama.
