There's also https://anonradio.net which is less about hacking and more just hackers with music to share. It's classic SDF-based fun.

Wouldn't it be cool if hackers talked to each other like truckers in their own language?

It's about 30 years out of date, but there used to be the Jargon File - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jargon_File

I’m syncing on that but my time slice is closing for this clock cycle.

I really hoped for a radio station with nice music.

Yeah soma.fm is very good. I hear it for like 20 years now on off.

SomaFM is an utter institution. It predates SF being overrun with techbro culture--the hackers were mostly in the valley, the city was an even slice of misfits and outcasts (and hackers among the mix, not dominating it), and the bros were mostly still going into finance.

At least after hackers hack the radio station to play some nice music. Wouldn’t that be a cool idea? The hackable radio station where you get your songs played if you manage to hack it.

I used to listen the hacker public radio maybe 10 years ago, what a great rediscovery for me! So many unlistened episodes.

Woah I forgot all about this, I used to listen in like 2006-2009 when I was into podcasts. That's awesome they're still doing it!

Oh, so what could be a problem?

I have automatic time update set up on mobile so this shouldn’t be an issue…
