Since 2003, I have been an avid XM Radio listener. I enjoy listening to music without commercials and annoying radio DJs. At one time, I had 5 XM Radios. That number has since gone down.

Unfortunately, ever since Sirius and XM merged, I have been more and more disappointed. The price has gone up, you removed the free online listening, added additional charges (Royalty charges), but worst of all they kept annoying, disrespectful DJs. I would like to complain about the radio DJ, Madison. She is on 2 channels: Alt Nation and 1st Wave. Since this is the case, I lose two stations that I cannot listen to because she is annoying, rude, crude, doesn't talk about current music, unprofessional, and is very disrespectful to her listeners.

Some examples of her unprofessionalism are:

She yells into the microphone

She sings

She talks about her private parts, flatulence, and child

She speaks her opinions of bands (current and past)

She does not give her listeners correct information about the bands

To back up her unprofessionalism, please see the group on Facebook entitled I Loathe Madison on Sirius/ XM radio: https://www.facebook.com/home.php?sk=group_124909****52&id=101502****230****

They currently have 231 members and constantly complain and threaten to leave Sirius/XM Radio.

I have read that Sirius/ XM radio DJs are "Master music programmers and on-air personalities, who are true experts, host our music. They back up the music with compelling information about the song being played." I respect this fact. I can tell you this is certainly not the case with Madison.

I have contacted Steve Blatter, Sr. Vice President, Music Programming with Sirius XM radio and received a somewhat generic letter. I know numerous people that have complained and nothing has changed.

I just created a petition entitled Remove Madison as a DJ on XM Radio, because I care deeply about this very important issue.

I'm trying to collect 1000 signatures.

I'm looking into Google Play Radio - she irks my soul. And my teenage daughters hate her too. 0-3 in my house!

I think a more proactive approach would have more impact.... how does one get hired by SiriusXM to begin with?? I think I could do it and enjoy it!

I too had to cancel XM in both of my vehicles as she ruins Alt Nation and gives me road rage. We just bought new vehicles with a free trial and I naively tuned to Alt Nation and there she was with her nasaly voice saying obnoxious things thinking she is funny. I havenโ€™t tuned since and wonโ€™t be renewing the trials in either vehicle.

Sirius has tried to get me back multiple times. I just can't based on principle.

She was on the only two stations I really listened to and within a few days I hated her. She's nothing like what a true DJ should be. I'm not an extreme person. I don't post hateful things on social media.

And I am generally liked and respected by my friends, family, colleagues and coworkers. Yet she bothers me so much I joined a Facebook group about it. So there you have it.

Normal people hate her that much. Yeah, it's a problem.

Guest

Madison burps on air, sings over the artist and is unprofessional im every way. Her continued presence makes me wonder who is im charge at sirius/xm

Guest

I agree. My two favorite stations are unpleasant to listen to since there's a chance Madison will break in with one of her tedious tirades or performances. I immediately change the channel at the sound of her voice, and am often disappointed when I go back several minutes later to find that she's not finished.

Agree with everything said in the post

Guest

Shes an absolute atrocity and posts people's private comments to her. Shes the reason I left and will not be back until shes fired and publicly apologizes for what a horrible she is.

Guest

Love Alt Nation but Madison needs to go, she is obnoxious and annoying. I will not listen to this station when she is in the air, thatโ€™s pretty sad.

Guest

She says her own name more than a five year old. Can't stand her!

Guest

Called customer service today and asked about why the customer is unable to listen to XM free with there prescription free online. I was told by the agent that you have to have full access to use online free.

When I had full access they still wanted me to pay. when my prescription runs out I will not prescribe again.

They only want to make money to fill their pockets. Wise up folks there are to many other apps out there to give what we need.

Omg get a life!

Nope, still there.

Guest

Honestly I absolutely hate her. She is such a *** chore to listen to.

It's like why does she have to talk about herself so *** much?!

Just play music. No one cares about your *** life Madison.
