Re: BBC etc.



Bud inquired - > Where can this thread lead to or go nowhere?

I've become increasingly exasperated with most radio programming, I do
listen to NPR in the mornings for news, but much of the other choices on the
band only irritate me.

So I download podcasts, and have my mp3 player in the car with me every time
I drive.

bbc.co.uk has several enjoyable choices. My favorites are the Friday night
comedy, especially the News Quiz, and another program called "Americana"
which provides another point of view on much of American culture.

I understand all of "Americana's" references, but sometimes appeal to Mitchy
to explain some of the jokes on the News Quiz. but even if I don't
understand the references, I usually am laughing out loud.
