When you kill someone, steal their car, and the radio is playing Vice City Public Radio and you notice how insane the banter is.
I found a utility to extract those as MP3s and to this day I still play them loud in my car sometimes.

Dude yes! I had an idea to play those in my car when I met up with a friend interstate, but I then decided to do something that was higher effort, and I made my own mock radio station where I was the host, heavily inspired by the VC radio stations
It started off completely normal with subtle hints (the station name was BSFM), and then started having odd songs play like Minecraft parodies, music from other games and small indie artists only we would know, and towards the end I did "talkback" interviewing all of our friends that were in on it, giving weird takes on bread of all things.
Pirate radio & Part15 radio <3
For a few months I experimented with extreme Part15. I had a big-ass antenna high on the roof (which is what made this a temporary hobby) and a deep solid ground contact. It was just slightly over legal in terms of wattage but managed to broadcast almost a mile -- including a school and some government offices.
That was like 15 years ago, when USA still had a little freedom. These days I'd be too afraid of ICE/Tulsi/Patel/Neom hauling me away in the night
