LOL!  We usually don't have the radio on during trips because we're talking. If we do, it's on Sirius' 70s on 7 or FoxNews.  But, he likes my playlist so we'll listen to that too.  I don't care for his country music.

You may have just solved a problem.  Hubby has lost enough of his hearing that he has to have a tv up fairly loud.  At least it's fairly loud for someone that can hear a pin drop.  I'm going to run this idea past him.  Thanks!

I have them and only wear the right one. I listen to movies while at work. I have the phone face down and just listen and makes the day go so much faster.

@monicakm   I think one of the biggest assets IMO is people can go about their own business listening to streaming on computer, music phone etc.  When they have those things in we don't hear their music it programs. But it does block a lot of their hearing. Cause I have to yell to go get husband, or one of the adult grands, cause when the buds are in it does reduce outside noise. They are a huge Asset on airplane if you can use Bluetooth.

Boy does that sound familiar... my husband's middle name is "huh?"  And my hearing is so acute I can hear my hair fall out at night 😆 (just kidding)

LOLOL!

I haven't researched it yet but I know today's earbuds can connect to smart TVs.  I'm going to go ask him what he thinks about it.  It would make a great Mother's Day present (g)

My children have the Apple version and use them all of the time. The only ear "anything" I've ever used is swim ear plugs when I was participating in synchronized swimming. 

 

I still have swimmer's ear frequently, and I'm afraid to use anything else in my ear. I do use headphones when I fly.  Smiley Happy

I’ve used Apple brand since the beginning. I wore them during my commute to NYC in the street & on the bus. I’m retired now & wear them when I walk, in the gym or if I’m watching a movie; I wouldn’t be without them.
