It’s a waste of time to listen to anything on NPR except for “Car Talk”.
Car talk? The two inane brothers? They couldn’t talk a person through a tire change.
NPR reminds me of “Radio Moscow” in the early ‘60s. Occasionally, they have some good music.
I like to listen to NPR because of the interviews. Quite a few times the NPR media idiot gets their ass handed to them when the interviewee exposes NPR prejudices. The interviewer will counter with the same question reworded which gets the same answer in greater detail. You can hear the discomfort and surprise in the NPR interviewer’s voice.
It’s great sport!
