Customer Reviews
Two cheers for NPR!
I look forward to listening to Talk of the Nation daily (I couldn't before, college student schedule), though it would be better if they podcast it like they did Science Friday- sending each segment out as a seperate file.
One of the best comes to Podcast
It's a pleasure to see NPR offering more full versions of its show, like Talk of the Nation, available as podcasts for those of us not fortunate to be able to tune in at the appointed hour (college student here too). This show has fantastic topics and callers bring a richness to the debate that you don't often hear on talk radio.
Best source of detailed coverage on NPR
I listened faithfully to TOTN broadcasts before I moved to a region without them. I'm so glad to get TOTN back through iTunes, better than ever because I can now choose my time to listen. Soon, TOTN will once again be my major source of detailed audio news. This combination of quality and quantity deserves the top rating of 5 stars.
