Reconsider
It is with a very heavy heart that I write this. Tonya Mosley is a wonderful broadcaster who has her place in the NPR ecosystem. But she is not an alternate host to Terry Gross by a long shot. I find myself repeatedly tuning out of her interviews . There’s a gullible disposition to embrace interviewees like the ridiculously childish Amanda Montel. She does not probe the interviewees like Terry. Fresh Air is indistinguishable from Terry Gross. Dave Davies filled in for her beautifully. Tonya is working for a different show. I understand founding hosts need to find a voice to fill their eventual absence and retirement. Unfortunately Tonya Mosley is not that person. The one thing Fresh Air is is not is earnest. That gave us, for decades, the reassurance we were not settling for anything.

Thanks, NPR Thanks, Terry Thanks, Itunes I have waited for this for so long! Now if we could get Garrison Keillor to give us the full 2 hours of PHC, all would be right with the world. Except that Dubya is still in office.

Fresh Air and Radio Times from WHYY are programs I take time everyday to enjoy. They inform, entertain, and brroaden my world.
