Radio has become the staple for family meal time.
- More fluent user experience, simply flip a switch. No face unlock, no finding through apps.
- Less decision making. No search for the “best” channel or topic.
- More focused. No screen, no pop-up.
- More engaging. Not all hosts or music falls into our likes, but that turns into a dinner table discussion.
- Practice accepting imperfection. Less favorable songs, hosts, uninterruptible ads; the fact it can’t be swiped is a reminder to accept what happens in the moment.
It’s an outdated, single purpose technology, but it reminds us to live in the moment, even if it’s imperfect or unpleasant.
