Enjoy the tour of NPR headquarters. You get lots of history of Public Radio and see the very floor where it is all happening live. The sound studio was my favorite and I took some photos to share. I think you need about an hour to do the full tour and it is pretty hands on.

I have had touring NPR on my to do list for a while. So glad I was able to check it off the list! It is an amazing facility and the tour was outstanding! Volunteers provide the tours, so you know they love NPR as much you do! :) Tours are at 11am (free) and I just signed up online. Super easy!

Whenever I'm feeling down I'll tune into NPR and close my eyes and simply mellow out to the soft music by different artists and to those that came up with this inspiring way to allow people to express themselves thru the culture of music is absolutely beautiful and empowering.

Having listened to NPR's programing via TuneIn for many years now, stepping into her LEED Gold-Certified Headquarter is surreal and a highlight to my virgin visit to DC.

For NPR fans, make sure to reserve a 60-minute tour (only on Tuesdays starting at 11am) to get a behind-the-scene look at her o...

I love NPR, but I got to put you on blast! Now that is out of the way...we booked a tour last week and were super excited to possibly see a "Tiny Desk" concert. We arrived at NPR about 30 minutes before the tour to ensure that parking was not an issue. By the way, download the parking app for DC,...

I appreciate the news services all through the week. However, the network is becoming increasingly liberal in recent years; for example, the Weekend Edition Sunday has recently become little more than a two hour review of recent U.S. politics, very little of other stuff like sports, movies, etc.

There are two sides to NPR and they both are great. The first side is for tourists. Unlike other media companies, NPR allows you to walk right in. There's a public lobby that visually tells the history of NPR and current stats. At the end of the lobby is a large gift shop with NPR everything from ha...

Advice and news reports are valuable when done right and NPR really hit the mark with their platform. Getting thorough and comprehensive analyses on daily events makes a whole lot of sense and they piece meal it for anyone to understand. Truly remarkable.

I was thrilled to find out their new location was a short walk from my hotel! I couldn't stay for the tour because I was on my way to a conference but I wanted to take a quick peek.

Just a tip, I was told one could sign up for the tour online only and not on the day of the tour. My apologies if t...

You have to book your tour before the day-of. It's absolutely a must-see, especially if you are a local and/or listen to NPR. The tour let's you see pretty much everything, but they are very strict about phones, cameras, and other electronics. They will allow you to take photos only in very specific...

If you are a fan of public radio, the public tour (make an online reservation) on weekdays is not to be missed. See the sprawling state of the art Studio 1 where audio engineer Andy is ready for anything, tour the studios where so many of your favorite shows are recorded (SOOOO MANY Neumann U87s !)...

What an absolute disaster, Terry Grossman's interview was today with Hillary Clinton..It seemed Terry had her own political agenda. Terry harassed Clinton on her views of Gay marriage, she misquoted Mrs Clinton twice and seemingly wanted to blame Mrs. Clinton for comments made by Bill Clinton. I thi...
