To celebrate 50 years of NPR, we asked you, our listeners, what stories have captivated you over the decades.

This interview is from SDPB's daily public-affairs show, In the Moment, hosted by Lori Walsh.

We Take A Moment for some public radio history. We hear audio from the late Frank Tavares. During his life, he recorded hundreds of NPR funder credits for three decades and was known as the authoritative "voice of NPR."
