A burning question regarding the intro of the Audiovox Infinite Radio, at 2:05 of the YouTube video Tom Malone mentions "bullfights from Spain" as available content. Just curious, do they really broadcast play-by-play of bullfights? Has anyone else ever heard of other offbeat competitions broadcast via radio? Chess, fencing, curling, perhaps? In fact, to open an interesting thread of discussion, since our focus here on this list is "programming", what are some of the strangest shows, topics, live bloopers, etc. you've ever heard on international radio?

Speaking of the RCA Infinite Radio:

Here's a Youtube video with the Audiovox marketing manager touting the
radio at a trade show.
