Decay
Sorry that I have to say I've been sad to watch what used to be my absolute favorite radio program hit what feels to me like a period of degeneration over the last couple of years (budget problems ?). This is most exemplified by the constant recycling of triple refried segments in topical shows that are essentially stews of leftover/previous segments. This is particularly annoying given that it's never made clear which were recently recorded and which are refried segments. Sometimes I don't recall until part way in to a segment that I've already heard it. This tendency recently hit an all time low in a couple of shows purporting to examine the effects of technology by running some many year old segments in areas that change by the day. And all this combined with an apparent decision to try to go with a more topical less philosophical approach than previously, has reduced the show for me to just another of the endless NPR intelligent talking heads gabfests. Just another evolution I need to adapt to I guess, sigh..Read full review »
