You are right!!! There are no pictures or colors to keep my attention to KNPR 88.9 FM, but it delivers current affairs and ideas of the future.....so I listen to what they have to say.
At least 2 hours a day, I am in my car driving somewhere or stuck in traffic trying to get somewhere. I could daydream a few thoughts and sing along to Adel like nobody's watching, but soon I am compelled to tune in KNPR 88.9 FM....often trying to catch Fresh Air hosted by Terry Gross. She interviews everyone from comedians to politicians....all types of lives matter to us. Her gift is gently opening interviewees hearts without force-to the level often they didn't even intend to do so on public radio. They have a great line-up programs, including but not limited to: Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me, Ted Talk, and All Things Considered.
Because they are commercial free and member supported radio station, they have non-biased opinions delivering the facts and allowing you to draw your own conclusions.
In this society, we are over-stimulated with lots of media but check this geeky station out and enrich your stand in this world.
