I haven't had to do it in a while, but I found that AM radio can be pretty interesting and downright bizarre in the early hours. Since the signals travel farther at night, you can get stations from all over the US and Canada here in New Jersey. I can get the Wheeling Jamboree and with luck, the Grand Ole Opry on Sat. evenings. And the call-in shows, where people just as bored as me, but with access to phones, with nothing to say call to talk to a host who can't think of an interesting topic. It's a whole different world out there after midnight.
