Upcoming Programming & Changes
Be sure to tune in for these upcoming shows:
Thursday, August 21 at 6pm catch the monthly Radio RoundUp featuring an interview with Kris Gruen, the acting Director of the Creative Campus and hear about the changes coming to the old Goddard campus. Levi interviews programmer and Program Committee member, Maura Quinn, as well as Merry Gangemi, a long time programmer, about the role community radio has in our current times.
The second Thursday of the month at 6pm is the new local show, Hyperlocal Plainfield hosted by Syd and Natasha. The show will get Plainfielders up to speed about what is happening in the village, while also highlighting how local governance functions. Syd & Natasha hope that bringing people easy to digest local news, they can strengthen community ties and engagement, especially in the face of an increasingly authoritarian and fascist state. You can catch their show from last week in our archives still.
Saturday, September 13 at 10am, the Civic Standard's Civic Radio Project will be its's last in its 6 month run as our collaboration with them.
We hope you have been enjoying the new local programs that started this summer: Eggs on Toast on Mondays at 9am with Kelly, Thursdays at 12pm, Unshelved with J Kramer and on the 1st Thursday of the month at 6pm the Broken Bois Collective, Sex Fly with DJ Benge, on the 1st Saturdays at 10am, and DJ Rhizosphere's Under the Covers on the 3rd Saturdays at 10am.
We've had a few shows depart and take a break this summer as well. Long-time programmer Peter Goreau has stepped back from his show Spanning the Chasm on Sundays at 2pm. We hope to welcome Peter back in the coming months. Other shows taking a break include, Audio Ergo Sum, with Darien and Ruby every other Sunday at 10am, All the Crooked Saints with DJ Sacramento Tuesdays at midnight, Mermaid Avenue on Tuesdays at 12pm with Trevor, and Structurally Unsound, with Yardain, every other Tuesdays at 9am. Where Do We Go From Here?, Fridays at 11am with DJ Mittens was a summer show only and Mittens has gone back to college for the fall. Each of these show slots now have music syndicated shows airing instead. Check our schedule for the latest line up.
