Weekend Edition

I wonder does anybody know if there are any NPR stations that don't at the very least repeat 1 hour of Weekend Edition that is done both Saturdays and Sundays that are normally hosted by Scott Simon (Saturdays) and Lulu Garcia-Navarro (Sundays) that will make it a 3 hour broadcast, when the show is only live for 2 hours.
 
None of the NPR stations I regularly listen to extend "Weekend Edition" past its usual 2 hour run. WBEZ's scheduling is unusual.

It seems too me when I have looked, that they pretty mcc almost all replay an hour, even ones that follow it up a third hour with Wait Wait Don't Tell Me, on Sundays WBEZ airs On Being at 7 AM rather then 6 AM which I see other stations do, and then airs the 2nd hour of the show live, then air the first hour on tape delay, and then replay the second hour again. On WNYC, they have two stations one on am, and on on fm, and on the am station they do 3 hours of Weekend Edition on Sunday mornings.
