NPRaholic.

Hi! My name is Gina and I am a NPRaholic.

It began innocently enough. A listen, here a listen there. No commitment. It started with Prairie Home Companion. I knew I could quit at anytime.

I was a casual user, at first. I didn’t even know when the show began. I just “happened” to find it.

But pretty soon, it became a habit. First it was weekly than bi-weekly, pretty soon daily, a preset channel on my radio.

I started experimenting with other shows. Car talk, All Things Considered, Wait…wait don’t tell me.

Pretty soon I couldn’t stop. I even unplugged my TV.

Yes, my name is Gina and I am an NPRaholic.
