ETPR stands for East Town Public Radio. There is only one show on this station, apparently, Pressing Issues. Pressing Issues is a debate program hosted by Chaurice Mavez. The point is to bring radical point of views together and debate one topic. Of course, each show somewhat strays from the topic and turns more into a fight. The best part about the program is the satirical comedy aspect. Each character portrays a part of our society: politicians, Goths, preachers, over-bearing mothers each, of course, are done in a ridiculous manner, hence the satire aspect of the show. One thing you should notice is that a lot of characters contradict themselves at some point or another (just a part of the satire aspect, of course). For example, Chaurice Mavez at a few points constantly says that ETPR is commercial free, advertising free, and you get no blatant interruptions. However, they plug a lot of "valued sponsors" and interrupt the programing to beg for money, gotta love irony.
