Someone *ahem* pointed out the fact that Mike Collins (NPR, Charlotte Talks) is hard to listen to because he's clearly a Myers Park uppity WASP dick. Today, I listened... and I heard it. Nearly eight years of listening to Charlotte Talks (high school, college) albeit intermittently (I couldn't listen as much when I wasn't in the country)... I'd never noticed before. Maybe it didn't strike me as odd because he sounds like my Myers Park neighbors. Who knows, Mike could very well be the guy sitting next to me at my grand MP church. (Which I do recognize as antithetical to me, although I continue to attend)
Anyways, I'm not ready to give up on Charlotte Talks yet. I still think he asks good questions, and I often like his guests (Dr. El-Nawawy this morning!). But... I hear it.
