- New Hampshire Public Radio
Y’know, it’s kind of funny. One of the reasons you listen to public radio, one of the reasons you love public radio is because of the individual attention. All year, it feels like Scott Simon and Jad Abumrad and Diane Rehm and Robin Young are all talking to you. Not standing at a podium shouting to the masses, they’re next to you talking in your ear. And you hang on their words, you can’t get enough of them, you come back every day, week after week to find out what else they have to tell you...And then the fund drive comes along.
And Scott and Jad and Diane and Robin…they’re all still talking to you. But suddenly you think we’re talking to someone else. And every year, we try to find new and effective ways of convincing you that we are indeed talking to you during these drives. And each year we get a few more converts. But what if just this once, everyone listening right now called right now with a donation to this public radio station. What if you, because you’re listening right now, called right now.
