I must admit: a LOT (and I mean a lot 
) of things bug me, but Diane Rehm's voice is surprisingly not one of them. Whew!!

I can't abide the woman either. Not her voice, not her manner, not anything. I've been wishing she would retire for years, but no luck yet. Summer time isn't too bad though as she tends to take a few breaks and you get a guest host.

I can't stand her. I don't listen to her, and change the station when she comes on. I get irritated and start wanting to finish her sentences.

NPR will never get rid of her, nor should they. Her show is terrific. If you don't like it, don't listen to it.

I can't stand DR. I think her show and her interviewing skills are horrific. If you're a regular listener, you still cannot get used to her voice and come to just appreciate her for her lack of talent. Regardless if she is quite open about her dysphonia and mentions it on the air, this does not make it any easier to listen to and we would all be better off if NPR would just let her go and she could go have her voice treatments.
If NPR got rid of her, it would be one of the best moves they have made in some time. I think she could be easily replaced.

(and appreciate the way she's succeeded in the face of her condition) She's quite open about her dysphonia and mentions it on the air, usually when she's announcing that someone will be subbing for her when she takes time off for a voice treatment.
If NPR got rid of her, it would be a real loss. I don't think she could be easily replaced.

She's on NPR/WAMU from 10-12 daily and syndicated around the world. She airs from AU.

I'm a huge fan of her. I started listening to her about 2 yrs ago and listen to her mostly on podcast. I think she has one of the best shows on the air and I've listened to nearly all of them. She gets over 2m regular listeners, so no, I don't think they are going to take the mic away.
Yes, she has a condition that is neurological and impacts her voice. If you have ever listened to RFK Jr., he has it too. Apparently, she needs to get a monthly needle in her throat, a steroid i think, so that she is able to keep speaking. that's the treatment she was just getting.
Today's two shows were outstanding.

I think she asks great questions that flow with the conversation. She always gets me thinking to a different depth depending on the topic. If she weren't so good, she wouldn't have a job. I don't even notice her voice anymore.

I like her show when she has a guest host, otherwise it's pretty much unlistenable. I've always found her to be an obnoxious interviewer as well.
I do miss Derek McGinty though, Kojo is hopeless in comparison. Too bad he's wasting his talent on local TV news, but I would guess it pays a lot more, so can't blame him.
