Economics is such a small portion of what NPR covers. And most of the time it is things like what the market did today which are fact based.

Do I disagree with stuff they say sometimes? Absolutely. But not enough to change the station.

Then again, I am more tolerant or opposing views than most, unfortunately.

> I am more tolerant or opposing views than most, unfortunately.

Why do you say "unfortunately"? I would say it is a strength if you can tolerate opposing views without necessarily accepting them.

He is saying it is unfortunate that others are not as tolerant of opposing views.

D'oh! Of course.

There are two ways that he could be just as tolerant...

Marketplace with Kai Ryssdal? Cringeworthy?

Edit: Or Planet Money?

OMG Kai Ryssdal is insufferable. I can't decide which I loathe more: his nails-on-chalkboard exaggeratedly-saccharine voice or his habit of filling in between stories with stupid rhetorical questions the "answers" to which are based entirely on his own banal idiosyncratic bourgeois politics.

Marketplace is extremely cringe worthy. Planet Money seems to do better though.

Nevertheless hey are both good sources of facts if you look past the naïve understanding of economics.

Kai Ryssdal is horrible. Fluff piece after fluff piece and he prefaces all stories containing data with an extremely patronizing "dumb this down for you" speech.

I dont remember the program name.
