In my early thought process for this I was actually thinking about how to incorporate some non music channels. Not POTUS but NFL, NBA, NHL, MLB Networks

Wouldn't work for a playlist but could draft a player highlight  with Youtube links . Not sure if they are listed anywhere but could draft teams entrance music or batters walkup songs.

I'd offer to pair up but I'm probably even more limited. 

You know anything about rap X-mas songs for children?

yeah, would be cool if a Prince channel replaced something like a Pearl Jam channel esp if we can include covers or other performers' songs that were written by Prince.

Are these actual stations?  I've only had satellite radio in rental cars where I was more interested in where I was going.

I don't have Sirius XM either, but I have listened to it in other people's cars.  If I enter my mother's car, she usually has it on Fox News  :X , and my finger can't hit Willie's Roadhouse that is is on her dash display fast enough.  I've told her picking me up and having my ears hear that news station is like putting your child in a torture chamber. It's child abuse. She is a wicked woman.  😱

In! 

 
Monday, right? If possible, I would prefer to be at a turn as I will likely need to be skipped until lunch or after work. Assuming we are doing draft order.

At least in this draft if the category is something I have no knowledge of I can just listen to the station until it plays something I like/don't hate😎

Are there really going to be 50+ categories?

:tfp:

It occurred to me: One way to deal with a lot of categories is simply to increase the number of picks per round.

For instance, instead of randomly selecting three categories and everyone making two picks in a round ... bump it up to five categories and three picks per round. Something like that.

I would also have a rule that if all drafters in a round pass on a given category, that category gets kicked out.
