Jennifer Precise: “I was an NPR backseat baby and raised my daughter [Leigh Anne] to be an NPR backseat baby.”

Leigh Anne Precise: “I think the earliest memory I have is on Sunday mornings. I think it was Wait, Wait…Don’t Tell Me. And I would just hear it and I would just sit in the car, I was really young. I remember because I still had my coloring book and pencils. I would color away in the back seat and just listen to Wait, Wait…Don’t Tell Me. My parents would laugh, and then I would laugh for no reason. But I loved it because it made my parents happy and the more I started to understand I started to laugh as well. So, NPR and WBHM have been a very big part of my life, even since I was really small.”

Jennifer: “As government funding for public institutions like public radio becomes less and less certain, it becomes more and more important for those of us that value NPR and WBHM to step up to the plate and to ensure that these resources, the good reporting, the entertainment, the quality local, national and world coverage is available for our children. That’s one reason I support WBHM and encourage everyone else to as well.”
