Life, without public radio, without the Connection. Okay, of course it's not such a great prospect for me, or for the producers here. This is where we work. But what about you?
What if this 10 to 12 slot was jammed with the pitch and the patter and sports radio, the tonsil-twisting of Mariah Carey, the "best deals on furniture and fridges with no money down, nothing to pay until September and a warranty at a minimal additional charge, no coupons accepted."
Go ahead, turn the dial. It's there now. But we know you won't. The reason you're here, and I'm here, is that public radio is more than just a refuge from the onslaught of our commercial cousins, it is a place for us, other people.
Coming up next, famous people, funny people, and an irresistible hour of arm-twisting from The Connection. Really!
