I agree wholeheartedly. I just wish there was a station in town that played NPR content all day rather than just until noon and not again until 4. Even during pledge week NPR is always such a great respite from our commercial laden radio-scape.

I've always been a fan of sports talk radio but the only one I can pick up well with my car radio is the Fox Sports affiliate. Dan Patrick's show in the morning is really good although it conflicts with Fresh Air etc timewise.

The rest of the national shows throughout the day are mediocre to bad and all of their hosts seem to be very right-wing and insistent on dragging their politics into sports talk. The result of that is that I now laugh at Chris Meyers when he's obviously suffering about being relegated to a sideline reporter role at NFL games. I'd feel some empathy for him if he could just go 10 minutes without injecting some fringe-right political opinion into his sports show.
