NPR Spot

[Christoph the Magus]

I was sitting in traffic today and listening to NPR. A brief news spot came on regarding 4E and D&D in general. It was pretty nifty, although no information regarding game mechanics were discussed. Basically just compared MMO to some of the things that Wizards is trying with the DDI. The clip is probably on the NPR website, but I haven't been motivated enough to go look for it. Just thought I'd pass this on.

I seem to recall NPR did a thing on D&D about two, three years ago. I think for the 30th anniversary.

What show did you hear this on? I can't find anything on the site about dungeons and dragons past October.

Don't know. I think it was just part of a news report between 6+7 EST.

Is that the time slot for All Things Considered? Or is that the 5 o'clock slot...

"Good afternoon, I'm Carl Kasell. It's a slow news day today, so Ted, our assistant writer would like to have me tell you about his favorite pastime."

It was on Marketplace.

Real Audio?

Who in the hell still uses real audio? Damn socialist ivory towers...

Excuse me for being ignorant, but what on earth is "NPR"?

In my opinion, it's the only reason to own a radio. (At least here in the United States.)

National Public Radio
