Along the lines of phasing out national content, OPB may be pleased with itself for producing the lamely-named and lamely-executed Think Out Loud program, but it's not even close to a replacement for Here and Now, which used to run in that time slot, and which featured an excellent interviewer, Robin Young, and an apparently-endless list of truly interesting subjects, as well as authoritative sources. Think Out Loud is actually kind of embarassing. Does OPB understand that?
