Financed primarily by listener contributions, Chicago Public Radio is affiliated with both National Public Radio (NPR) and Public Radio International (PRI). As of 2006, the station draws an estimated 600,000 listeners each week.
WBEZ/CPR is the home of Ira Glass of This American Life.
Programming on Chicago Public Radio includes the usual world music, quiz shows, and international and local news on a regular basis. It offers such staples as All Things Considered, Car Talk, Marketplace, Morning Edition, A Prairie Home Companion, and Whad'ya know. Currently, Chicago Public Radio is best known nationally as the producers of This American Life through Public Radio International, and Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me! through NPR. Generally, news and talk programming is heard during the day, with arts and culture programming on the weekends. Legendary jazz disc jockey Dick Buckley has a time slot Sunday afternoons.
Chicago Public Radio was at one time the flagship station of Steve Cushing's nationally distributed Saturday night blues music program Blues Before Sunrise, which started in 1979 and has been independently produced and distributed by Cushing since 1995; the program now airs locally on station WDCB. The station is also the flagship station of The Annoying Music Show!, a 3-5 minute program (which airs during a station break) that showcases generally annoying songs. The program is produced by Nayder Communications, headed by former WBEZ program director Jim Nayder. (Nayder Communications also produces the somewhat more serious Magnificent Obsession, a program of interviews with persons who have overcome various addictions, for which CPR is the flagship station.)
Its morning magazine program Eight Forty-Eight was named after the postal address of the station, 848 East Grand Avenue, though the name is sometimes misinterpreted as referring to its air time (originally 9:30am, currently 9:00am).
The other local program heard Monday-through-Friday is Worldview, an international news and analysis program that began in 1985 as Midday with Sondra Gair. After Gair's death in 1995, her producer Jerome McDonnell took over the program and has hosted since. It was heard nationally on Sirius Satellite Radio's now-defunct PRI channel from Sirius' inception until 2006. Starting March 2007, Worldview is aired on the satellite XMPR channel nightly.
The local arts program, Hello, Beautiful!, airs Sunday morning, and the rock music talk show Sound Opinions, which moved from WXRT in 2005, is distributed nationally by American Public Media. The "radio comic strip" 11 Central Avenue airs on Friday mornings during Morning Edition and is distributed nationally through the Public Radio Exchange.
In addition, Chicago Public Radio sponsors and administers the Third Coast International Audio Festival, a showcase for independent radio producers. It produces the weekly program Re:sound. Also, CPR is a founding member of the Public Radio Exchange, a programming cooperative for public radio stations and independent producers.

Ideologically, Fuentes is indistinguishable from a nazi
He's a catholic nationalist who believes in the JQ, and he's only not an ethno-nationalist because it's infeasible in the US.
He's openly advocated for violence then walked it back with the equivalent of "in a video game", pretending to be joking when he realized he was on the verge of breaking the law.
Just doesn't seem like the hill to die on
"He called Fuentes a mean name, boo hoo"
Meanwhile, Fuentes has said many objectively worse things that you probably shrug off or even laugh at when he does such.
(If this assumption is true, you were just being disingenuous from the beginning)
If you think it's dumb to call anyone a nazi in 2021 or that the accusation is thrown around too much, I would agree with you, but Fuentes isn't some innocent bystander accused for no reason.

The difference with Robert Barnes and most of Tim's guests is that he actually does something, rather than just talk about it.
Joe Mama
@Jason Which guests have shown anger at Tim?
🔱Eric the Red 🦅🙋🏼♂️

But ok bro bro
D Soule

Vesuvias

Hopefully Rogan invited them for a talk, that would be a cool 3 hours.

@Vilma Betancourt-O'Day And, they didn't even have an after shoe discussion with them. They put it up as Viva and Barnes in the Green Room, which was boring. I couldn't watch it all. I thought it would be a good opportunity to get into the stuff that shall not be said on YT. Totally disappointed.

I was hoping we'd get a surprise show with Viva and Barnes on Rogan. Doesn't sound like they went to Texas though.

@Vilma Betancourt-O'Day Tim doesn't really do interviews they do hangout sessions.
