What do you usually listen to driving to and from work/school?




So what do GCers listen to driving to and from work/school? NPR radio, iPod music, CDs, mixed music? Dead silence?

I usually listen to a mixed playlist, but it's generally music like this:

Just a few of my favs.

I tried to find a really cool cruising gif, but that's all I could find.

I like NPR, too. Diane Rehm is the best. She sounds like she's really old, but from what people have told me, she isn't.

NPR.
I live three miles from where I work which isn't enough time for audiobooks.

Classical music I listen to: Some of my favorites. Huge Bach fan.

ETA: When I'm at work, the designers are allowed to listen to music via iPod etc. I listen to only Classical music at work. It helps me with my ideas and designs. I've always sketched while listening to Classical music.

NPR, or if I'm driving at night, I have some podcasts I like to listen to. Among them, The Moth, Stuff You Missed in History Class, Dan Carlin's Hardcore History (and his political show), Left, Right & Center, some Slate podcasts, etc.

NPR after 8 or 9 around here turns into a jazz/world music channel.

I even use the proxy server at school and listen to it for the hour I'm at school before students arrive.

Elliot in the Morning on DC101 before work, WTOP 103.5 on the way home (news, weather, traffic, etc). Traffic is such a huge thing in the DC metro area, you really need it updated every few minutes to figure out if your half hour commute is going to take 3-4 hours.

If I'm feeling up to some music, I'll pop in a cd. I have Marina and the Diamonds, Beach House, the Deftones, Crystal Castles and all sorts of weird stuff floating in my car.

Yes! I listen to EITM too. And then, on the way home, it is XM Alt Nation, Lithium, New Wave, or sometimes, depending on when I leave work, I listen to Andrew Wilkow or Hannity.
