Do you listen to NPR?

For years I've posted here and talked with posters such as Krishna and GnuBobo who swear by NPR but I never really dove in. I'm in this stage right now where I'm trying to be more productive, and spend less time watching TV in the communal living room with roommates and more time in my room, listening to talk radio, reading, and writing. I'm fucking hooked on NPR right now. Soft voices, intelligent discussions, music to my ears.

What's great is you can download all sorts of podcasts off their website and load em on to your MP3 player. They've got tons of This American Life archived.

I do, the only radio station I listen to is a classical station and its half classical music/half NPR.

I wake up to NPR.

Yeah whenever I'm flipping through stations it's always one of the first ones I check on to see what they're talking about.

I used to listen to it every single morning on the way to school and work.

I still catch it sometimes,or do the 24/7 e-stream.

I've been a talk radio junkie for many years. NPR mostly garners my attention on the weekends. Car Talk, Wait Wait...Don't Tell Me, Whatd'ya Know, A Prarie Home Companion. These are some of the programs that have kept me entertained for years.

It's only good in the morning, though. I wake up to it every morning, listen for about 20 minutes to hear about the happenings of the world, then I get up and shower, etc, go to work, then if I ever put it on after I get off work it's only classic music or opera or something.

Same here. I wish it was the other way around,though. I'd much rather wake up to classical.

Not me.

I like to go into the day knowing what's happening in the world around me.

We've got two NPR stations.

Our FM station is like you describe, talkradio sometimes, classical music other times.

Our AM NPR station is talk radio all the time.

Lucky.

I wonder if we have an AM version?

Maybe from Sacramento or something, but that's pretty far away.

KALW-FM: 91.7
