Worst radio channel
September 9, 2024

This channel is more like a republican campaigning platform. They publicaly hang up on people who oppose their points of view. And don't let me start on commercials!

Love 101.5.
November 9, 2022

Absolutely love this station. I used to listen everyday from Hammonton Nj. I have moved to the shore and the station is no where to be found. Even online it is hard due to fluctuations in data service. Please make signal stronger!

Having different hosts with different opinions are refreshing and entertaining. They make long commutes bearable with all types of subjects. The moved to another state and I love the app that allows me to keep in touch with happening in my home state.

Awesome website to read some local news. Usually, browse it at work when I have a spare minute and don't know what to do. I only wish they'd posted more positive news too.

This station has been spewing out highly dangerous irresponsible lies on a daily basis.

This right-wing leaning station caters to the naive and the uneducated. During the Covid-19 crisis, they told people not to get vaccinated and that the pandemic was only a "flu."

During the January 6th hearings, with facts coming out on a daily basis that Donald Trump led an insurrection, and used his supporters to push violence, this station had the nerve to say that there were more important things like inflation and gas prices to talk about.

I have never seen any radio station be so irresponsible with news coverage. A station like this that spews out hatred and right-wing conspiracies only serve to put our democracy in danger.

Shame on them!

Just simply a terrible radio station. Only listen to it for the weather forecasts. The hosts, especially Spadea, spew their hateful conservative garbage fueled by QAnon conspiracies. This station needs to be removed from the air, for stupidity, arrogance and blatant lying.

10.5 is the only source of local news we listen to! Eric Scott's reporting is straightforward and unslanted.

Station can't be beat for updated state news. While I might not agree with all the hosts... it is a great talk radio station, with many different views.

Many negative reviews from those who act like they don't have the ability to change the channel. Are they being held against their will with speakers screaming NJ 101.5 in their ear all day?

How many psychotic people are out there, that would put themselves through listening to something they abhor just so they can complain? With over 160 FCC-licensed radio stations in the state, it makes you wonder what kind of people would listen day in and day out to something they find fault with.

Bill Spadea sounds like he brings a bag of $#*!s on the air with him and proceeds to suck each one individually. He's the worst.

Ban Michael Jackson
March 10, 2019

It is long past time that the weekend programming took Michael Jackson off its playlist. As it is, I turn the station off when one of his records start. We don't need to contribute to the estate of that unrepentant child molester any longer.

Is there any air time?
February 7, 2019

I commute an hr each way and theres only 15 minutes of on air time. The rest is looping commercials. I can memorize them all. This radio station is nothing but commercials and news loops. Then the time spent on air is just trashing NJs government.

10.5 IS not non partisan at all the only music they play is rock the only thing in music they cover is rock N ROLL - all the hosts are caucasion not one host is of any other ethnicity - they say they rep NJ yet they are all Republicans (the HOSTS) AND in their political topics most of the time is spent deriding our current President and jabbing at Democrats - how do you say you are representative of NEW JERSEY when you put down other parties and denigrate the President of the United States daily.

I think 101.5 SHOULD be forced to take the NEW JERSEY OUT of its platform they only represent a small part of NEW JERSEY we are not all REPUBLICANS and if you are going to speak politically the topics and the HOSTS SHOULD BE NON-PARTISAN.

I listen to the station every day just to see which candidate they are trashing or endorsing who ever heard of HOSTS endorsing candidates. I like the hosts but since they are unwilling to change their one pony view on politics they need to add color and stop trashing people they do not necessarily agree with and stop the negative rhetoric and the snide jokes on the station - example "WHINY HILLIARY" TAKE OUR GLOWING STATE OUT OF IT because you do not represent ALL OF NEW JERSEY JUST THE republican platform and that is not NEW JERSEY!

We have many different nationalities in NEW JERSEY LISTENING TO these one sided hosts you would never know that - get with 2016 and change the rhetoric and become a station for all the people in NJ not use a few!

Stale webpage
December 19, 2008

Stale webpage - I moved from New Jersey about 3 and a half years ago. One of my stay connected things was to pull up this station to alleviate my homesickness.
They had a podcast for the 5 am news. I had my niece do this for me as you had to jump through so many hoops to get there!
I e-mailed them, etc., called Apple 800#, still cannot get that podcast past 9/16/08.
Yesterday I was reading my CBN.com weekly wrap up e-mail, and with two mouse clicks I was able to down load a podcast and have ten to choose from!
Ya think maybe I didn't say enough prayers for this other one to work?!
