In the Fresh Off the Boat episode "Huangsgiving," recurring gay character Oscar Chow brings his new boyfriend Michael to the Huangs' Thanksgiving dinner. He excitedly introduces him to Jessica, saying, "Michael listens to NPR!" -- and he proudly displays the tote to prove it. (The show is set in the 1990s.)

Later, Michael is alone with Jessica's mom and he starts tearing up over an NPR story he heard on the plight of almonds, in what could be the most hilarious stereotype of a bleeding-heart liberal NPR listener ever:

-Michael: So, I was listening to the most fascinating story on NPR this morning about almonds. I was on the train, tears streaming down my face. You know, and Oscar says, "What's wrong?" [Voice breaking] And I sa-- sorry. I said, "The almonds are in trouble, and we're doing nothing." 

-Ma: Connie! [In Chinese] Come take me away from this man.

Will no one save the almonds?! Oh, the humanity! 

The mom's reaction is pitch perfect.
