Five for Friday

I’ve admitted before that I am a public media nut. I produce shows that air on public TV and Radio stations so I certainly have some skin in the game. But I could listen (and often do) to NPR all day long. Between the reporting, the features and the incredible interviews, NPR is the jam, yo!

So I thought y’all might enjoy the Public Radio Name Generator as much as I did. Go get your name and come back and leave it in the comments. Funniest name gets…well, my admiration. I’m poor.

Five For Friday time!

      Yes! My boyfriend discovered it in college at one point and I totally didn’t believe that it would be so Fruity Pebbley…but it is! I can’t remember the flavor name either though…

    I too have started listening to NPR. Originally I thought it was the “mature” thing to do now that I am in my 30′s but I ended up really liking it. I LOVE my NPR Radio name!
