The BPP Diner

Where the show continues

One Month On, What is Filling that BPP Shaped Hole In Your Listening Habits?

Just wondering what everybody else is listening to in lieu of the BPP? Mainly, I'm listening to PRI's The World (used to listen on radio or on web until I discovered it as a podcast after BPP ended). As for the suggestions here and on the Facebook group, The Takeaway (a poor substitute for BPP, but better than nothing), Tell Me More (decent, depending on the subject), and CBC's the Current (always good to know what the Canadians are thinking). Too Beautiful to Live, well, I can rarely get through the seemingly endless commercial talk radio noise at the beginning of the show. (Sorry, Burbank - I know you chime in here from time to time, but that's MHO).

Mainly, I miss the free-for all that was The Most and The Ramble.

What is everybody else listening to?

Alas, a limited series, the Logically Critical podcasts.

I listened to the BPP podcast everyday at work. It took me almost 8 hours to listen to the 2 hour show! I would go back and listen to things over and over to be sure I didn't miss anything. I've been listening to TBTL and Rachel Maddow daily and the Weekend America podcast to fill in the holes.

TBTL is my remedy, but also Fresh Air, The Daily Show, Colbert Report, and Wait Wait. I listen to MPR (Minnesota Public Radio) if it isn't too overwhelming.

There is one thing about TBTL that gets to me--- the music in between breaks. They sometimes mess with my brain and when I hear Luke's voice, I think of way back when....

Sigh.

We get the latest on the negotiations to release Gilad Shalit, the Israeli soldier who was captured by Hamas in June of 2006. And we look at why Israel has a policy of negotiating with groups that it considers terrorists when so many other countries refuse.
