1. Wisconsin Public Radio a National Treasure

Righties hate that it gets great private donations from little people and companies.

2. Yes, I think it's the best NPR station I've heard

There's a certain quality to all the shows, very consistent - educated intelligent people discussing things calmly and rationally.
"Calling All Pets" is one of my favorite shows, and I don't have any pets.
