Public Radio

Posted by: chris_layton in Stream of Culture, Uncategorized, Web

I have to confess, today hasn’t gone too well. The website nightmare is yet unresolved, although it is finally coming back together. This fact might have accentuated my pleasure to see this week’s podcast of “Wait, Wait, Don’t Tell Me” in iTunes, waiting to be heard.
I am a NPR junkie, in addition to being a coffe junkie and a news-in-general junkie. My habit has been exaggerated recently, now that I can subscribe to many shows in iTunes. Frankly, having a podcast of “Wait, Wait, Don’t Tell Me,” makes the whole podcast thing worth while. If you haven’t heard the show - go to iTunes and check it out.
I currently subscribe to these shows:

  • Wait, Wait, Don’t Tell Me
  • Marketplace
  • On the Media
  • The Splendid Table
  • This American Life

    • Missing from the list, because they don’t podcast: Car Talk and Prairie Home Companion

      Here are my top five. And yes, I do feel the need to place value judgments on everything I encounter.

      1. This American Life
      2. Morning Edition
      3. Car Talk
      4. Talk of the Nation
      5. Beats and Pieces

      Although this last one was done with pretty quick, I’m still amazed at how out of sorts I feel during pledge drives.
