Day -1: Radio Is a Sound Salvation

Everybody plays this Thing of Ours differently (within the confines of the rules, of course). Some eschew helmets and pads to take their chances without any precautions at all. Others don earbuds and listen only to carefully culled playlists. Both are viable options, but this one’s for those of you in the latter group.

Our new friends at AccuRadio have created not one, not five, but seven—count ’em, seven!—online radio channels where you won’t hear the Boy anywhere. So if you’re looking to play with your seatbelt fastened (again, nothing wrong with that!), take a look at their LDB-free offerings.

(Also note another opportunity to do some good if you’re of the mind. See their Season of Sharing page to vote for the charities that’ll receive a piece of their $25,000 pot. And, of course, you can always send something to Americares, which is our charity of choice again this year.)

I’m also adding that to our LDBC-safe media page, which includes links to a heapin’ helpin’ of hospitable playlists created by generous LDBCers.

And while you’re at it, peruse our list of deadly movies and TV so you know what to avoid once the game starts on Black Friday. (Please note, though: as that page says, it’s not even close to being a comprehensive list. But you’ll find a link there to an IMDb page that’s far more thorough.)
