AI is taking over the WORLD! It's writing term papers, telling you what movies & music you'll like and even writing rap songs. WTF!?

 Maybe the term paper thing is ok actually....BUT YOU CAN SAY NO TO ROBOT RADIO!

Help me support Chicago and the internet's best place for great music played by REAL LIVE DJs: CHIRP Radio 107.1! 

For those unfamiliar, CHIRP is a non-profitad-free, volunteer-driven radio station that braodcasts on 107.1 in Chicago and worldwide at chirpradio.org (ask your smart speaker to play CHIRP Radio!). Tune in anytime and you'll hear amazing tunes from LIVE DJs! No robots or algorithms!

As a non-profit, CHIRP is powered by its amazing team of volunteers and many generous supporters. Please help me support this one-of-a-kind Chicago music institution! 

If a tax-deductible donation doesn't work for you right now, consider volunteering for CHIRP, or sharing this with a friend or family member who loves great music and might consider donating or volunteering. 

CHIRP has some great thank-you gifts for this fundraising drive, including the EXCLUSIVE CHIRP Membercard, now in app form, providing 2-for-1 deals and other discounts at local restaurants and attractions, as well as travel discounts, including national brands like Disney. Check out the benefits at this link!
