In 2019, the New Mexico Senate rejected a bill that would have removed an old, invalid abortion law from the books.
One year later, voters had their say. Six Democratic senators who had voted against the bill were removed from office, including powerful veterans such as former President pro tem Mary Kay Papen and Finance Committee Chairman John Arthur Smith. Nancy Sharp and Michele Rasch, from the Mesilla Valley Film Society, will discuss the group, its choices of films, the imminent re-opening of the Fountain Theater, what films are on tap first, and what the rules will be. (As it happens, both co-hosts are strong supporters of the group!)
Peter and Shirley talked with Kirk Smalley of Stand for the Silent, a national anti-bullying program.
It's our 4th anniversary! On July 26, 2017, we broadcast the first Speak Up, Las Cruces!, the first live regular broadcast on the community radio station we were trying to build here. So we'll visit with board members Nan Rubin, Alice Carruth, and Mary Martinez-White about the station and why helping nurture it appealed to each of them, and where we're headed.
Co-hosts Peter Goodman and Shirley Baca started the July 28, 2021 broadcast talking about contemporary issues, including NM Sen. Joseph Cervantes being denied communion and the January 6 panel.
 Here in New Mexico, we all know that every year there is a budget debate about how much funding comes to the state from the oil and gas industry. Many of us may be thinking that, despite our dependence on this source of income, the state is increasingly turning to renewable energy sources and reducing our reliance on extraction. But in her investigative piece Back to the Well, Searchlight reporter Lindsey Fendt describes how the state is increasing oil and gas revenues instead, and she shares her findings with Nan Rubin.
Today's program welcomes co-host Keith Whelpley to share some of his more recent considerations about "Time". Is time real? Can it be empirically measured and proven? If not, is time real? Is time a human construct? Are our constructs real? What does time mean to us, to our lives, to our perceptions of reality?
 Lisa Lucca talks with Mia Kalish, a former IT expert who has made quilting her retirement passion, about the beauty, heritage, and community of quilting, and how quilts are a metaphor for life.
