NPR's Talk Of The Nation,
I disagree with your decision to close out "Talk of the Nation" in June. I find this to be one of your most enjoyable programs and will miss it dearly when it retires.

Just got my schedule changed starting in June so that I can take luinch and listen to "Talk of the Nation" on NPR every day at 2. Nothing can mess this plan up.
