i, like many people i know, have become so used to waking to
bob
edwards’

voice on
npr’s morning
edition

that the news that he’s

leaving the program

, or rather he’s

being booted against his will

, is nothing short of shocking.

one can only imagine what sort of replacement that the suits at
npr

have in the hopper. i fear it’ll be a contrived attempt to appeal
to a younger audience with a perceived shorter attention span, if
the mostly-asbysmal program,
day to day

is any indication.
