[quote=Anonymous]Lots of changes over the years/decades, from broadcasters to topics. Agree there seems to be a lot more lgbtq+ items covered, and that's not my cup of tea, but everyone should see themselves in the coverage, right? I could live with it. But Ayesha Rascoe finally did me in (had to look up how to spell her name). Every time she says "git" instead of "get," "wif" instead of "with," etc. When I heard her on the air, I turned WAMU off. Now I listen to podcasts in the car, instead of the radio long time WAMU supporter, now a former WAMU supporter I'm going to disagree with you there - I like Ayesha Rascoe a lot. (She's NPR, not specific to WAMU.) I think she was a good WH reporter and I like her as a host now, too. I always enjoy when she shows up on Pop Culture Happy Hour, as well. I tried to like Ayesha because listening to Weekend edition because I loved Weekend Edition. But I couldn't. I don't mind her accent but the tone or pitch seems not right for radio. I find her voice irritating instead of soothing. I also stopped listening, first on Sunday mornings, then on Saturdays, too. Sometimes I will try and listen to see if maybe it is better than I remembered, but I never listen for more than 5 minutes. [/quote]
