National Public Radio
One day, I will work for National Public Radio. I will be paid to listen to NPR all day long, which is what I try to do for no pay as it is. I will make NPR even greater than it already is.
Here are the greatest NPR shows, ranked by greatness:
All Things Considered
This American Life
A Prairie Home Companion
Fresh Air
I award the lowest possible ranking to Hearts of Space. On the jazz station that I could pick up in Jasper, Alabama, this tribute to minimalist Bay-area composers would interrupt the sweet, sweet flow of tinny-voiced jazz that I liked to fall asleep with. I would wake up at around 2am, say very loud 'What the hell is this New Age crap?' and fall asleep again. Restlessly.
Honk if you love NPR.
