Jenellen, believe me, the only cure for your problem is another mate. Your obvious incompatability will only get worse. I'm with him. To play a radio in a car when you have a passenger is downright rude. It's like having someone constantly trying to butt in on a conversation. If there is something special you both agree on that you want to hear, fine, go for it. Otherwise, turn the damn thing off. Noise pollution is as bad as cigarette smoke to me. I guess the adjoining rocking chairs at the NYC is out eh?
