There's actually a bigger story to what you're saying. Public radio (NPR, APM, et al.) hasn't come up with new hit shows with longevity, while some are aging out. The format of Wait Wait is fine, but the references are 40 years too old. Terry Gross, while an amazing interviewer, is in her 70's. On KQED, Michael Krasny retired from forum, and his replacements aren't as good. As it currently exists, public radio in the US feels like a thing for coastal liberals between the ages of 50 and 70. It's trying here and there to find a new voice, but it hasn't.
