Facebook Diane Barkelew Wallace Enjoy, work hard, and learn! KPCC is the best NPR station! Taylor Davis Welcome to the KPCC family, John! And Kudos to KPCC for hiring such an Facebook obviously qualified person for the job smile emoticon Facebook Jose Delgado Great addition to the KPCC reporting team. Kellen McGuire Keep up the good work. You guys are the best station in Southern California Facebook hands down.

@KPCCofframp @kpccrabe GREAT show today! Honored to have been a guest ! Twitter #OscarsPreviewSpecial @MussoFrankGrill #KPCClove Joseph Byrnes If I got a Kpcc hoodie my life would be complete. I could die a happy man and never for a moment think that i wasted my life.#kpcclove. Also in middle school I visited the radio station and made the kids in my group listen to kpcc on the way back to school. It's just Facebook meant to be!!!! Facebook Mary Jane Saiz Sands Your request will be done today! I have taken over his job. Darr Hawthorne You missed one of the Best Shows in the SGV at Irwindale Speedway and Facebook Event Center. $15 bucks per ticket!

Glenn Habas Listen, I completely respect a skeptic, as I am one myself, as i suspect many a KPCC listener are. And if your decision merely impacted you and your family, then more power to you. But this is s public health issue. Unfortunately we cannot leave the public's health up to an individual's assessment of the science. Perhaps you are a scientist, medical doctor, toxicologist, etc. Or perhaps you just have time on your hands to google. Either way, I am not going to relinquish the health and safety of my family based on your assurance you have read some things. No offense, but I have no reason to trust your research skills. Ultimately as a civil society we have to be able to rely on majority expert opinion. If there was actually some substantial scientific expert opinion that agrees with the anti-vac movement, then this would be a more complicated issue. But the science is well settled and most of what we get from the other side is tired tropes about "big pharma." You to have more than vague fear of corporations to justify this nonsense. I also have no idea why requiring a person to take precautions to prevent them from spreading death and disease is anti-American. There is nothing in the Constitution that guarantees this. And even if there were, Constitutional rights are abrogated all the time if the are compelling public interests that outweigh them. That's called a thoughtful civil society, not anti-Americanism.

"…Love you guys. Yesterday you had this interesting thing on the program where somebody Voicemail conclusively said students learn better in lecture putting pen to paper…" "…I'm calling because I'm a regular listener and it appears you're about to air a story in which a couple who's child is diagnosed with autism also received a vaccine… To me this is a very inappropriate story and a dangerous one at that. Your job is to inform the public of factual Voicemail events..."

Voicemail Where the heck is CarTalk? 10:40 Saturday morning, 89.3- No CarTalk. Very Disappointed. I used to enjoy Morning Edition. But the frequent appeals for sustaining memberships have destroyed that. If KPCC needs funding so badly, do what KUSC does and have quarterly membership drives. As things stand now, I see no difference between Email commercial breaks and your annoying policy. I like Tess Vigland so much more than Alex Cohen. Wish I could hear her voice and Email pov every day. Or Patt Morrison. Alex annoys me.,

Just wanted to say what a pleasure it is to hear Tess Vineland's dulcet tones on the Email radio again. And happy to see she has landed in such a hospitable environment. I was disappointed that "Car Talk" was not aired this morning & is not on the schedule for tomorrow either. Even though the shows are re-runs, they are very enjoyable for listeners. Has the show been taken off your programming schedule permanently, or Email was this a one-weekend thing? Thank you, Theresa Dolan

I don't Tweet, and I prefer not to comment on content via public forums such as Facebook or Google. This makes it hard to comment on individual programs such as Larry Mantle's Air Talk. But I would like to say this to Larry Mantle re his program on the book "Water to Angels..." Time to re-read the book "Cadillac Dessert" by Marc Reisner. And how does William Shatner's plan to crowd-source funds develop a system to bring Email water from Seattle. Not as far-fetched as it might seem after hearing this!

Listened to a story 5/10/2015 about 3:00 pm about an NYPD bomb squad killed in the line of duty, his widow told a story of connecting w one of the ppl convicted. She Email mentions a book they both read, cannot remember name of book, can you help? Email Where is Car Talk?

You have 3 types of commercials: 1. Sponsor messages, 2. Donation requests, 3. Announcements of upcoming events or programs. The WORST kind of commercials have upbeat music in the background and are louder than the news programs. The WORST TIME for loud commercials with upbeat music is from 1 am to 5 am. I love you guys, I really do. But if I wake up in the night and want to listen to news, I would rather Email hear a constant stream of BBC news than a stream of peppy commercials.

i love npr and kpcc. however, i'm really not digging the language of being "agnostics" -- i know you are trying to reach out to a broader (and more conservative audience), however, your risk losing your consensus audience that listens and supports npr. npr should not be fox news. i cannot believe how many gay marriage haters i've heard today -- it's kind of gotten me upset. this has been mainly on npr and some on kpcc. Email please stop this movement to the right/wrong. Too depressing for a Friday night. Suicide and kids. Nice way to relax after a 60 hour Email work week.

I am a long-time listener and member. I appreciate all your good work. In recent times, I have noticed a trend of two or more hosts talking over each other and finishing each other's sentences in such a way that it is apparent the script calls for it. I find it distracting and annoying---a lot like TV commercials with rapid scene changes. Apparently it is supposed to sound hip and cool. I am neither hip nor cool. I want my programming written and presented as if for adults. Two offenders that come to mind: Email Radiolab and the Ted Radio Hour. Thanks for listening.

Email Offramp played a great version of "Feelings" just before 1 pm today. Whose was it?

Why do so many of your reporters/correspondents (not your on-air staff) have the "Valley Girl" voice - almost all their sentences seem to end with a verbal question mark? It can sometimes get so annoying that I turn the radio off. I understand that Email there's nothing that can be done about this but just wanted to vent  Please STOP forcing us longtime subscribers/sustainers to listen during fundraisers! KCRW's radio app is infinitely superior to yours because they have a 24/7 news feed Email that allows us to listen without fundraising pitches.

I think you guys underestimate your listening audience. On Monday morning, I heard your weather forecast, many times, say it will approach 100 degrees today. It was nowhere near that in my location (Hancock Park). In the L.A. Times Tuesday, the temperature in Pasadena was 99 degrees; the temperature in downtown L.A. was 85 Email degrees. I say again you underestimate where your listeners are located. I've already written three times about your replacing Garrison Keillor's "Writers' Almanac" at 4am with Sandra Singh Lo. You have only added insult to injury by adding a SECOND SSL offering at 4:30 as well. So guess what - I no longer awake to Morning Edition. I now wake up to the classics on KUSC FM. You're just lucky you still carry "Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me" and "Prairie Home Companion", or I'd cancel my sustaining Email membership. I am NOT happy with you people !
