Implicit in the post above is a very interesting point: even though Pratte is frequently derided on this forum, he is also the only KDKA host, with the exceptions of Chis and Eddy, whom many sensitive listeners care about as a person. All three of those hosts come across as authentic people, and Pratte is unusual in the degree to which he discloses the sadnesses in his life. His openness and vulnerability are part of his charm. No matter how much some listeners might fault him for occasional lapses in factual knowledge and accuracy, it is undeniable that he is a reliably warm presence on a station that is mostly very cold.
