    What's weird is now if I read an actual book it puts me right to sleep. But I can read my phone for hours. I wonder if I am the only one this happens to?

    Having a big data plan is the solution. Once you have that there is Hulu and You Tube. I also got a 3 month trial of SiriusXM for $2. I'm a news junkie so there is always something.

    Walmart DC have free wifi when you unload there.

    I enjoyed Sirius when I had it in the truck too. I used to be a talk radio junkie but got away from it. I listen to several podcasts now that are pretty good.

    After my 3 months are up, they want like $28 per month, which is not going to happen.

    I use Castbox for some of the podcasts I listen to while driving.
