Sunday
In the Que Tal Spotlight Sunday 7-8 AM, Rebroadcast Tuesday 2-3 PM Mark Slade presents Vinyl Noir. Delving In Sunday 9-10 AM Friday 11 AM-12 PM, Rebroadcast Sociologist and Deputy Dean of the College at Princeton University Rebekah Peeples talks with Stuart Kelter about her book, Unchanged Trebles: What Boy Choirs Teach Us About Motherhood and Masculinity, which turns out to be a rich and fertile ground for exploring both issues. A Way With Words Sunday 10-11 AM, Rebroadcast Wednesday 10-11 AM Whippoorwills, bob whites, and chickadees. How do we decide the names of birds and what to call their calls? Plus, the last syllables of Arkansas and Kansas are pronounced differently, but they come from the same etymological root. And: What’s the best word to describe your relationship with someone who’s less than a friend but closer than an acquaintance. Is that person one of your friendlies? Also, knobbly monster, cuate, to have one’s bum in the butter, the meaning of confirming, Kelly days, a quiz about common bonds, to have a goat’s mouth, antidisestablishmentarianism, and a Tex-Mex casserole dish. CounterSpin Sunday 11-11:30 AM Friday 12-12:30 PM, Rebroadcast The head of the Federal Housing Finance Agency, Bill Pulte, soft-launching the idea of a 50-year mortgage suggests the reveal was perhaps mistimed, but that doesn’t mean it’s not reflective of the sort of policy the Trump White House is intent on. And though the idea of extending payments over time under the guise of making home ownership more accessible seems to have landed poorly with economists right, left and center, much of corporate news media were willing to give it a reflexively respectful whirl. This week we revisit relevant, informed conversations with veteran housing analysts and advocates: Gene Slater, Richard Rothstein and George Lipsitz. Making Contact Sunday 11:30 AM-12 PM, Rebroadcast Friday 12:30-1 PM Kev Choice: Love, Growth, and the Power of Music The Moth Sun 1-2 PM, Rebroadcast Tuesday 5-6 PM Stories of nerves, anxiety, fear! And the courage and support that allow us to overcome. Amanda Stern reaches a breaking point with her anxiety. Tim Manley's repressed feelings start to manifest themselves physically. Nervous bride-to-be Anoush Froundjian introduces her fiancé to her Armenian traditions. Cheryl Murfin forgets something important in the parking lot of the grocery story. Devan Sandiford finds the courage to talk to his mother about the family's past. Strange Currency Sunday 2-4 PM Released in 1989, 11 was the third album from New Jersey’s Smithereens. Taking its name from the Rat Pack film Ocean’s Eleven, the record included a number of songs that were inescapable in the months after the album’s release as the group became a favorite of rock radio programmers. We’ll hear music from that release as well as selections from the expanded edition of The Replacements album Don’t Tell a Soul. Music They Don't Want You To Hear Sunday 6-8 PM Wed 10 PM-12 AM, Rebroadcast Ron Cooke plays songs from Gordon Lightfoot and Chris Smither to celebrate their birthdays and then a special feature of songs from the Occupy Wall Street movement protesting income inequality that effectively ended when the police cleared Zuccotti Park in NYC on November 15, 2011. Juke In The Back Sunday 10-11 PM Jimmy Witherspoon is one of most influential blues shouters to emerge after WWII and yet he remains just a footnote in the evolution of Rhythm & Blues and Rock n' Roll. His career spanned over 50 years and this week Matt The Cat looks at 'Spoon's early records from 1945-50 in part 1 of 2 on this talented and important figure. Monday
The First Rock and Roll Song Monday 12-3 AM Belgian bands indistinguishable from American bands. Travel With Rick Steves Monday 11 AM-12 PM After living in AirBnBs all over the world for the last twelve years, Senior Nomads Debbie and Michael Campbell have come home. They tell Rick Steves how they did it, and what it taught them to live for a time in 95 different countries. Rick also checks in with Venice-based tour guide Igor Scomparin to hear the latest strategies for coping with the tourist crowds, so you can find the magic of Venice. And we'll meet Kenny Dunn, the founder of a food tour company that operates in more than twenty cities across Europe. Alternative Radio Monday 12-1 PM The United States today has the dubious distinction of being the only major country not to guarantee health care for its population. Some 85 million Americans are uninsured, half a million go bankrupt every year because of medically related debt and we have one of the lowest life expectancy rates of any rich country. Bernie Sanders says Medicare for All would save $650 billion a year and provide quality health care for everyone. There’s plenty of money for the Pentagon but little for ordinary people. We need accessible and affordable health care. Now! Map The Music Mon 2-3, Rebroadcast Saturday 8-9 AM Map the Music goes to England and features all female songs. And . . . the Gents get their turn next week! Hear Rock, Alternative, R&B and Pop music ranging from 1964-2022, all female and all with a connection to England! Global Village Monday 3-4 PM Though Hubert Laws is best known as a jazz musician, he was a classically trained artist and also particularly well-versed in Latin jazz. Chris Heim explores those sides of his artistry to mark his birthday. We’ll hear Laws as a leader, a composer, and as a special guest with Mongo Santamaria, Alice Coltrane, Airto, and Antonio Carlos Jobim. Reveal Monday 5-6 PM Chris Mack filed a lawsuit that detailed a jailhouse assault in Mississippi’s Rankin County Jail that left him with broken ribs, a broken nose, and two black eyes. But it wasn’t just guards who attacked him. Mack said a group of inmates joined in—men in the jail’s Trusty Inmate Program, who had special privileges and wore blue jumpsuits. “They were called the blue wave,” Mack said. Reporters from Mississippi Today and The New York Times discovered a system in which guards ordered beatings, inmates who participated were rewarded, and those trying to raise an alarm about the system were ignored. Tuesday
Cafe Con Leche Tuesday 8-9 AM Fri 2-3 PM, Rebroadcast Greg is pleased to have Dennis Lujan back as a guest on the program to discuss current projects Dennis has in process as well as upcoming events. Dennis always has a wide range of artistic endeavors underway, and his perspective on the arts in our area is finely tuned into our local experience. Transworld Airwaves Tuesday 9-10 PM Transworld Awe. Wednesday
Afropop Worldwide Wednesday 7-8 PM Kickin' it in Cabo Verde. Music They Don't Want You To Hear Wed 10 PM-12 AM, Rebroadcast Sunday 6-8 PM Ron Cooke plays songs from Gordon Lightfoot and Chris Smither to celebrate their birthdays and then a special feature of songs from the Occupy Wall Street movement protesting income inequality that effectively ended when the police cleared Zuccotti Park in NYC on November 15, 2011. |
