Honestly? I'm only assuming. And that's because not a lot of people here really have the interest in listening to Car Talk or "Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me!" in the car or online. That's just my hunch. I could be wrong, but as it stands, only two people confirmed that they listen to NPR.



Sweet! I need to listen more at home. Lots of good shows on there. Sort of silly that there was a controversy about NPR earlier this year sadly.

I know. I usually listen on Saturdays when I'm running around doing errands. I think it's the relaxed nature of the programs that appeals to me. Oh, and I'd be honored to have Carl Kasell record the greeting for my voicemail. :D
 
Hahaha, try and participate in the program next time.

One show I never really gave a chance (although I need to listen to it someday) would be "A Prairie Home Companion". It's a good show, I'm certain, but for some reason I'm not too keen on giving it a try.

You should break down and try it, it's always entertaining, though some shows are better than others.

As for NPR, the programming is pretty darn nice as far as I'm concerned. I enjoy the classical music during the day, in my market area. Then of course, all the others that people mentioned. You should check out some of the late afternoon and evening programming as well, they've podcasts also.

Have you listened to the program featuring the round table discussions of black journalists, or " The Story"?
 
I definitely give it a whirl. I saw the movie of the same name and it was entertaining. But I've always been more interested in the news, be it Morning Edition, All Things Considered, Marketplace...mainly because of the current events.

I enjoy the classical music on there as well, but I sort of "detached" myself from listening to it and mainly listen to the talking aspects. I'm sure I'm missing out a lot in the music area, but I need to be alert when I'm on the road.
