    Correct.
    Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

      Thanks for letting me know. I had been planning to cancel this year anyway, since I hardly ever listen to it anymore. I'll call them tomorrow.

        I listen to them about 4 hours a day. This is going to be a very difficult decision.

          The agents are trying to give out a free month and move you to invoice billing, presumably as it helps reduce number of calcellatioms this weekend. You have to say you want immediate cancellation and ignore their pleas for free service.

              Yeah I did a lot of reading the Sirius xm Facebook page. They let you read all the visitor posts to the page and people are sharing their cancellation stories. Every post since Friday is anger at Bannon except for one person who keeps posting angry messages about the lack of a Celtic music station

                Someone dug up the file that has pics of Graham with a male companion. That's not gonna fly in the Womb of the Confederacy, and they'll find a Trumpster to primary him in 2020 unless he toes the line.

                  It's not like he's on every channel 24/7/365. You won't cancel your cable if Kevin Spacey got a gig on Freeform.

                  If he's on channel 200, don't listen to 200. There's 200 other channels you could listen to.

                    The reasoning is they don't want to support a company that would give someone like him a platform.

                    Personally, I'm keeping my subscription for now.

                        Just flip the station, dingbat.

                        Don't want your children watching primetime trash? Put them to bed.

                        Let the ratings speak for themselves.

                          For a while, I had the TLC channel, which was BS. Those other channels, though.....

                          I understand the sentiment, but don't agree with it. Just don't watch that channel. The ratings will take care of the glitch. How many folks hate Howard Stern? Or (insert whoever)?

                            I was really just asking joecct, hence the abortion related example.

                            That being said, I don't really have much an opinion on the issue, as I don't have Sirius. I do find it very similar though to all the people who quit watching the NFL due to the kneelers.

                              No sense in continuing to give my money to a company that's giving Bannon airtime, when I no longer listen to any of their other stations as it is.

                              More of an affirmation of a decision I'd already made, no?

                                That would be a legit reasoning.

                                I don't have Sirius, as I don't spend enough time listening to radio as it is, so meh on my end.
