Why can’t I see what program is playing now?

I see Take Away starts at 11 am. It’s 11:04 and I’m listening to news. Is there some disconnect between what’s playing now (and please tell me what’s playing now) and the stated play schedule? I’m clearing missing something.

Needs work

I wanted to love this app. Most of the articles open automatically in browser after trying to open in app, which annoys me. App also constantly shows there’s a notification even tho there isn’t. I hate that constant “1” so much that i may just delete the app altogether.
When the articles open in the app they’re well laid out and visually the app is pleasing to me but it’s “meh” in performance.

Smooth & Fast

For quick live listening this app is the best! I love that my station is just two taps away! One to open the app one to press play! I have not had the issue others had with the audio stopping. This app is a great escape from the tap trap other apps will get you sucked into.
