Weekend Changes to NHPR's Program Lineup

Extra hour of BBC for Sunday listening

NHPR’s revised Sunday lineup offers listeners a relaxing mix of storytelling and news, and the chance to enjoy an extra hour of the BBC.

From time to time, NHPR makes adjustments to its schedule to better reflect current programming and better serve listener needs. Our latest round of schedule changes mainly affect the Sunday schedule, and also involve one change to the Saturday evening lineup. The new schedule goes into effect from Saturday, February 29 onward. Listeners can access the schedule anytime at nhpr.org/schedule.

The new schedule:

Saturdays:

9 p.m. – Bullseye with Jesse Thorn - The public radio show about ‘what’s good’ in popular culture moves to Saturday evenings; It’s Been a Minute with Sam Sanders will now move to Sundays at 1 p.m.

Sundays:

10 a.m. – On the Media

11 a.m. – The New Yorker Radio Hour will now occupy this slot, long held by Studio 360. Last October, PRX announced Studio 360 would air its final episode in February 2020.

The New Yorker Radio Hour is a weekly program presented by the magazine’s editor, David Remnick, and features a mix of interviews, profiles and storytelling.

Noon – Wait Wait Don’t Tell Me!- The popular long-running news quiz show from NPR moves from 3 p.m. to noon Sundays.
