@tifosi77 What's the difference between a brother station and a sister station in radio or TV? And don't say it's penis.

I had briefly been in and around radio, and I've never heard of a "brother" station...I think someone may be pulling your............leg.

I never heard of a brother station either. Although I'm surprised sister station hasn't been changed to sibling station.

Never heard the phrase "brother station" before, and I shall politely decline the offer to believe you.

My daughter knows that everything is made up (Santa, etc.), but told us that she still wants to search for eggs this Easter. Good to hear. Printing out a giant egg on my 3D printer so that she can search for just that one filled with all of the candy. :lol:

I think DVE uses the term brother station when mentioning the X.

Because of the station having a largely male audience, the station refers to fellow iHeartMedia stations WXDX-FM and WPGB as "brother" stations as opposed to the more commonly used term "sister" station, since WXDX-FM also has a predominantly male audience and all three have younger listeners
That’s from the dve Wikipedia page, so you know it must be 100% accurate.

Boomers? You know it's 100% the suburban kids who thought they were rednecks and drove pickups with Confederate flag stickers back in high school who would complain about "sister" vs "brother" stations

That is true. Even the slightest bit of unmanly non-Joe Rogan type thing can’t be tolerated.

If there’s one serious medium left, it’s radio.
