Wait, Wait, Tell Me

Surprise - NPR callers may be disproportionately likely to be from A2.

  1. I listen to NPR all day at work and there’s an AA caller on the Diane Rehm show or Talk of the Nation about a third of the time.


  2. I haven’t noticed a lot of AAers per se, but it does seem like they take an inordinate number of calls from Michigan.


  3. Micigan is well covered by the NPR signal from WUOM, WVGR and the affiliate from Flint.

    I’ve been travelling up and down I-75 to and from Florida for a while and Dian Rehm isn’t carried on as many NPR stations along that corridor as we have here in Michigan.

    I suppose the number of callers from Michigan could indicate the broad interests of Michigan listeners and the quality of Ms Rehm’s interviews.


  4. This might be disconnected with the post BUT I think I saw a cicada.

    It looks harmless.


  5. Listening to Diane Rhem makes me want to medicate her.


  6. In relation to _earth’s comment: I am actually getting myself all zoologically excited about the 17 year cicada emergence. Does this make me a bad person?
