The Journey is a radio station featured in Grand Theft Auto IV. The station plays ambient and chillout music.

Description

The station is unusual, as its DJ is actually a Fruit Computer, which speaks in a synthesized voice of a female. The "DJ" often mentions that "Life is actually a game", and discusses, amongst other topics, the "relationship between computers and life". The computer's dialogue includes statements which appear to be philosophical, but are instead nonsensical and meaningless.

In Episodes from Liberty City, The Journey does not appear and is instead replaced by another ambient radio station, Self-Actualization FM.
