"I've been listening to MVY since the summer of ’88 as a carpenter on Nantucket during my summer months, and it was the one solace I found after graduating college and going back to ACK to bang a few more nails before making my way in the world. 31 years later I decided to see if it was a streaming option on my Sonos system, and like a lifelong friend, there you were, with the same beautiful music and calming DJ's. Absolutely MVY is the best public radio on the planet."
