Let's see

(Names are all spelled incorrectly. Some may apply to Chicago only?)

First off they can never shut up abt black people.

When it comes to music, the quality of the music is irrelevant. The background and nationality of the artist is.

The world with Marco worman is the shittiest thing on the radio. Ooh, look, this small island nation has a dust problem. This is news.

Terri gross and the fresh air crew are usually on point.

I don't know what the gently caress happened to Q. So Jain gomeschi is a violent lover? He was good. Now it's just a bunch of dumb Canadians and dumb hosts with hashtags and poo poo.

Robin young and her cronies at Wbur boston are big dummies.

Sound opinions is sound garbage.

Here in Chicago they fired Nyla Boodoo which is a continuation into mediocrity because she was alright.

A prairie home companion and garrison Keillor represent the horror of the mid west and the crippling senility of a dying generation. He is not funny or talented.

Snap judgement is incredibly stupid, and it's host is a human being.

The third coast audio festival just doesn't make any sense. It's the radio equivalent of pcp. Or a massive stroke that occurs during a schizophrenic episode.

The bbc news hour is dope. Sometimes razier ickball tears into some third world minister of internal affairs over mistreatment of some non entity.

Adolfo rays was a violent psychopath at 14 and deserved to be re sentenced to a just and holy Life In Prison. Sorry abt your poster boy, npr.

And finally a big gently caress you to kaiser health news for their disgusting puff pieces on corporate healthcare.

Hope everyone is having a nice night.

In one breath (here in Chicago, The Only City That Matters) they'll be like "broadcasting from navy pier" and in the next they'll be like "win a free party on our garden terrace with craft beer kegs and a live band!"

And then for two weeks all they do is ask you for money.

Here in Chicago we have this horrible thing called vocolo which is nprs reach for the hipster market. Periodically, and unpredictably, the afternoon shift (Melba Lara and formerly Nyla Boodoo) will erupt in an epilepsy of horrible trance music. It's a "mix". It was mixed by an ethnic minority. It lasts about five minutes.

Here in Chicago we also have this horrible poo poo called story core. It's where someone who is black, disabled, gay, or any combination of the three has one of their boring friends or relatives interview them about what a freak they are.
