Husband bought me XM radio for my birthday......

Am so excited I'll be getting AAR now and won't have to listen to NPR all the time. Question, how is the Bob Edwards radio show??? Is he close to being liberal? I'll be listening to him once I get the adapter that's been back ordered.

1. I've never heard his show, but judging by the ads, he gets a LOT

of good guests :).

3. Wasn't Bob Edwards a long time NPR host before the powers-to-be

decided they want to take NPR in a new direction? Think the repug CEO found Edwards a tad too truthful for his taste.

I know there was a huge outcry when they demoted Edwards and he decided not to stick around.

5. I got mine for our anniversary

and my life is SO much better. I got really tired of everything on the Radio and then got really tired of all my CD's. I love it so much I bought a Roady and hooked it up at my farm so I can listen while I work in the barn.

I have not listened to Bob Edwards yet. I actually am so happy to hear AAR that I have really not turned that off too many times. Someday, when my thirst to hear people who make sense to me has been slaked, I will explore it a little more.
