Alternatives to Bloomberg radio?

  1. Apologies if this is the wrong group, but I couldn't find one where it would fit better, really. Anyway, I usually listen to Bloomberg during premarket and market hours, and it's ok with Tom Keene early in the day, but about mid-day they switch mostly to the Politics and Policy, and Law stuff and generally stuff I don't care much for. Any audio alternatives -- not a chart room, but, rather a radio or live stream feed with commentary. I tried Options Network but the guy is too loud and tries to be AM radio or something, and I am not sure they have a live feed anyway. Thoughts? Suggestions? Looking for equities and options mainly, not so much futures.

    Cnbc have a free audio feed on their website. It used to be available to me in London but no more.

    CNBC Radio but its not available in some countries.

    If you're in a country that its not available...some free streaming services have it and some brokers have it in their trade execution platform.

  4. Will give a try but usually CNBC products are inferior to Bloomberg.

    Talk about a business channel diving into politics too much - CNBC "wrote the book".

    Then WTFox Business came along and doubled down. Mario B jumped Fonzie's shark and landed in the pool at Mar-A-Largo lol.

    TastyTrade? About 25% of the time, it's just filler and yuk yuk talk...non-market related stuff. I don't listen to it regularly although some of their market measures segments on backtests are interesting.

    I spend more of my time listening to MacroVoices and other podcasts on Youtube.

    Opps meant Maria B, not Mario B above. Gender change peeps not allowed on WTFox.

    What if you took the Bloomberg tv feed and turned off the screen?

    I haven’t watched Bloomberg tv in a long time but I only recall politics and policy if it had a specific market bend to it (like ecb meetings during the Greece crisis).
