Normally a favorite, but...
I've been a regular listener for about a year now, and have enjoyed the knowledgeable, thought-provoking dialogue. Lately, though, this show has sometimes decended into the pedantic.

I enjoy roundtable discussions and have listened to this one each week for a year or more. It is one of the better ones. However, it is "typical NPR." In other words, you do not really get the variety of opinions that is advertised. Rather, the show should be titled "Far Left, Far...Read full review »
