    Default Calgary morning radio stations - Morning Shows

    Anyone have suggestions about Calgary radio stations that have entertaining, but not vulgar? It's for my kids, and they like to have the funny hosts and a bit of music.

    We have been listening to AMP, but at least one morning a week they are talking about sex or abuse or toxic relationships.

    I like CKUA, because it's all love and music. But the kids aren't into it.

    Def not CJay but X-92.9 is probably about 90% safe. Not 100% though.

    Radio pretty much sucks here. Pod casts and audiobooks are pretty much all I listen to while driving now, and for tunes it is my own play lists.

    Yeah, I don't know what I'm hoping for here. My kids aren't going to learn any new words or concepts from this stuff, but it's just not what I want them listening to over thier cheerios, ya know?

    I listen to 101.5 Today Radio. Not bad, there's the odd sex discussion, but it's rare. Mostly newer music with some "oldies" thrown in there.

    I listen to Funny 1060 or Fan 960, rarely ever the normal junk on FM

    There is nothing I want to hear less when driving to work in the morning than two idiot radio hosts complaining about something stupid.

    Cancelled my Sirius because they couldn’t shut their hosts up and just play music.

    100% on Apple Music playlists for my drives in now.

    Sometimes I'll stream that here in Edmonton while I'm working actually. They had better format when it was Kool 101.5 though, playing just oldies. But now looks like Play 107.1 in Edmonton is doing the same format now. Top 40s with oldies.

    Well imagine if instead of writing that letter to the editor, she just posts on a car forum for car enthusiasts. That's Kritafo.

    Yep, I think they share hosts as well. I was in Edmonton a few months ago and heard a couple of the hosts that were also on down here.

    When I was listening to morning radio, I preferred 101.5. I got really turned off by 98.5 about 8 years ago when they started doing this stupid flower bit that just seemed incredibly trashy. Amp similarly turned me off when they did that burn $5k promo.

    ^The fact those stations play absolute garbage music is a bigger factor.

    How about those lite stations like 97.7 or 95.9?

    Can't vouch for them but they tends to stay PG.

    CJSW has good morning hosts (and music), different every day of the week.

    I hate AMP morning show with a passion. They talk about pretty classless topics, and there's always this annoying woman yelling in the background, like she's not cool enough to be a host but still wants to be heard.

    I find producer Melissa to be the least disastrous of the 3. Katie is a man hater and Ed is a man child. For a while they were getting such extreme troll calls you knew they were having their friends call in to do it. That show is such a trainwreck which is why I can't turn away, still listen to it with my shower radio every morning

    Between all of you regulars, Beyond should broadcast their own station

    i think it's Thursday mornings where DJ kav comes on after katie and ed, and it's always an amazing throwback mix. He is really good at what he does.
