A Day at National Public Radio: November 17, 1982

nprfreshair:

CSPAN just dug up this little gem for us. Carl Kasell makes an appearance at 1:24.

Is it cool if I spend 8 hours watching this whole thing?

Speaking of things I love coming together… Benedict Cumberbatch hearting NPR with Carl Kasell creeping in the background? Be still my beating heart!!!

I think we all know that if they’re offering up the Carl Kasell autograph pillow it’s a done deal. And that I’ll probably end up buying one anyway if I don’t get it as a pledge gift.

OK. I had to post the Part 2 of this video. I don’t think I can describe to you the joy that I feel in my heart right now.

NOT FRIGGIN’ COOL, INTERNET. In the time it took me to cap and write that, however, the video fixed itself. And now I can definitively tell you that THIS IS THE BEST VIDEO EVER. I’m about to watch Part 2. You guys. I friggin’ love public radio. Like, I know that you all know that already, but… I do. So much.
