I have a button on my car radio for WHRB, and I sometimes turn to it 
when I don't like what WCRB is playing.  I think they still play jazz in 
the morning, and sometimes they have some other Harvard-oriented 
programming.

One time several years ago, I turned to WHRB and heard some talk that I 
liked.  It was a program, apparently circa 1965, in tribute to the poet 
T. S. Elliot, and the speaker was Groucho Marx.  He and Elliot (whom he 
called "Tom") were fans of each other, and when they met, it's a tossup 
who was more thrilled.
