Are you implying to listen to the radio while the car is off?

If so turn off the car, and push start button once. Without touching the brake pedal. Car is in accessory mode.

Shift to neutral then turn the car off and the radio will stay on. Don't forget to shift into park afterward.

Tried it today. Thanks. The whole button pushing thing wasn’t too bad but the wheel dancing and all the systems booting back up seemed like there should be a better way. An Easter egg.
