This app seems to reverse the trend of separating NPR from local content as does the regular NPR app. When I use the regular NPR app I either listen to the local stream, or more commonly, grab all the newest segments from Morning Edition or All Things Considered, throw them in a playlist, and listen. In this way I miss all the local content.

This new app seamlessly mixes in content from your local station and features the local content prominently.

I think they have done a fantastic job here and are working hard to do good by their local stations.
