    Jesse Mermell, president and founder of progressive think tank deWit Impact Group and a former candidate for Massachusetts’s 4th Congressional District, is a regular on “Greater Boston,” so it was no surprise that she appeared during Braude’s final show. When asked what Mermell thinks the “big story of 2023” would be, she said there would be two. S...

    The audience got a rare look into Braude’s imagination and sense of humor Thursday when he took his turn to predict the “big story of 2023.” The usually serious Braude suggested that perhaps former President Donald Trump would leave his wife Melania Trump and elope with former news anchor and Trump-backed Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake. ...

    In his last “IMHO” segment, Braude made a cute callbackto an audience and internet debate over what the “H” in the acronym stands for — honest, humble, or something else? Braude said previously that an audience member had emailed to ask what the “H” stands for because they thought they had missed it. He revealed then that he’d never said what it st...

    Unsurprisingly, Braude’s “Boston Public Radio” co-host Margery Eagan made an appearance as part of the sendoff, and the two were sure to give the audience some classic Eagan and Braude banter. From the first moment, Braude went in on Eagan, asking in a jokingly exasperated tone, “Why are you here, Margery?” “Because I’ve been told you don’t want to...

    The producers of “Greater Boston” took full advantage of the opportunity to call out Braude’s fashion choices on his last night. For his “IMHO” segment, they decided to talk about “what the audience cares about” by determining the most common keywords found in audience feedback emails. The number three keyword turned out to be “outfit,” and the sho...

    In between the banter, Eagan delivered a fitting tribute to Braude, summarizing his biggest accomplishments as the host of “Greater Boston.” Eagan began by recapping some of Braude’s most memorable interviews, from Harvard academics to former prisoners and famous musicians. She also said the broadcaster was “fighting racism in places like Everett” ...

    If there’s one thing that Braude will be remembered for, it’s how much he interrupts both his cohosts and his guests. His interrupting came up in every part of the goodbye, with both “interrupt” showing up as the most common keyword in audience emails, to the crew putting together some of the most egregious examples of his interruptions. But Eagan ...

    As blistering as her earlier comment was, Eagan took the opportunity Thursday night to get Braude to go on the record swearing he wouldn’t leave “Boston Public Radio” anytime soon. “I want you to repeat after me. You will not leave ‘Boston Public Radio’ until hell freezes over,” she said. “That is my intention,” Braude replied, not quite committing...

    After all the jokes, Braude delivered one final monologue to say goodbye and thank you to loyal viewers and everyone involved in the show. “Governor [Deval] Patrick once said on our radio show, ‘Jim Braude — sometimes wrong, never in doubt.’ He was right on both counts,” Braude began. “But on this, I’m neither wrong, nor in doubt. I’ve gotten to si...
