[quote=Anonymous][b][quote=Anonymous]Older Gen X here. I was a loyal listener in my 20s and 30s until I had kids and couldn't hear the radio over them, lol!

I stopped listening for many years, then began to dip back in when I was driving alone here in my 50s...

...and I couldn't stand it.

The coverage struck me as obviously biased to the ultra-progressive slant that left out a few inconvenient facts. Many of the shows came off as either cloying or where told from [/b]weird angles that came off as just trying to look super cool instead of newsworthy -- e.g., we're going to be talking to the vegan sculptor who does body art and lives in a van and grows kale in a self-constructed greenhouse and drives a rickshaw bike through town to save the environment when they're not an activist on another political issue type of fare.[b]

I stopped listening altogether.[/quote]

I find the bolded interesting. Did NPR change, or were they doing the same thing when you were in your twenties, only now you've aged out of it?[/quote]
