Listen to radio stations from all over the world

 If you like to listen to world music, and are looking for a way to fritter away some time, check out  this website that was referenced in Dave Barry's Blog, of all places, that lets you listen to radio stations streaming from countries around the world:  https://radio.garden/search

Some of them have nice ethnic music to listen to (or dance to), and of course the ones with spoken words could be good if you're working on comprehension of another language...  You can search for a country, or a keyword like "folk" .

Thank you Linda and Jay for sharing this link! I like the features available on this site and have downloaded the Android version of their app to my phone. It's easy to find my favorites in the states, as well as overseas stations I have listened to before. I just have to remember that some stations don't broadcast after sunset, so when I get dead air, I check another app to see when the sun rises there. The only downside so far is the length of the ads keeping me from the radio functions, without an X to close them.
