- Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
- Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
- Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
- Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world

I think you misunderstood what I'm saying; I'm saying the kid is deliberately calling the radio a podcast to annoy OP. They know what a radio is because they've grown up with their parent using it day in day out in the car. So it's not an age gap as OP thinks, I'm saying this one is probably the early stages of the long war known as "having teenage kids".
Ah I got you. I've seen similar things happen so often with kids hat hadn't crossed my mind. My nephew thought his grandma's cordless (landline) phone was a remote control and wouldn't believe otherwise until I called it. "Why is it beeping???" "That's called a dialtone" "what's it supposed to do???"
