Over the years, attempts by National Public Radio to be funny have usually ended up as train wrecks (Click and Clack were the rare exception but, face it, you either love ’em or hate ’em). It’s never really been the forte of public broadcasters to make people chuckle. Over the years, it’s mostly been run by men who wear their suit coats while sitting in their cubicles.
In the last few weeks, though, NPR has been giving it a pretty good go with funny videos.
