Join us for this Summer Solstice news special featuring coverage of local activists arrested June 17 during a mountaintop removal protest in West Virginia. The half-hour broadcast also includes commentary by MAIN executive director Wally Bowen on the future of MAIN and WPVM. The coal country interview features local citizen journalist Kurt Mann and clean energy activist Dave Hollister. Both the interview and Kurt Mann’s dramatic video footage of activists climbing a Massey Coal Co. dragline machine can be found in the MAIN homepage spotlight at: http://www.main.nc.us.
Rick is a legendary West Coast DJ/Producer now living in Santa Cruz, Ca. He’s got an extensive discography with tracks on labels like Glasgow Underground, Amenti, & Viva!
He will also be stopping by the WPVM studios for an interview with Adam from the Nighttime Swerve.!!! Stay tuned for that broadcast.
Jazz fans will like this show. Thomas Rain Crowe and Nan Watkins dropped in to talk about their new book of interviews with great composers and players, Rare Birds, published late last year by the University Press of Mississippi. And if you’re going to talk about music, you really should play some, right? So the show features full tracks by Charles Lloyd, Philip Glass, Eugene Friesen, Sathima Bea Benjamin, and the Abdullah Ibrahim Trio. Enjoy.
Ah, poets … not the promptest people on the earth’s face, are we? If you’d tuned into this week’s Wordplay, you might have thought I’d just repeated last week’s fine show with Robert Bly, and moved on.
True, this week’s show does start off with about 15 minutes of the show with Bly; I’d cued it up when none of my guests had appeared by airtime, and a few minutes later headed the half-block to Malaprops for a cup of coffee. Half way there, though, I saw Glenis Redmond heading in my direction, so I met her and we headed back to the station. A few steps on, Laura Hope-Gill shouted from her car that she’d be there as soon as she parked, and that Sebastian Matthews was on the way. By a quarter after we had gathered in the studio (and Sebastian came along a couple minutes later – and brought with him Ryan Walsh, who’s now helping him edit Rivendell), and at the first break in the Bly show we went live, reading poems and talking over poetry, poets, the upcoming Wordfest, and the new plan for Rivendell for the rest of the hour. Turns out they’d all been to the same Kwanzaa party the night before, and had had a bit too much fun …
Give it a listen.
And if you wanted to catch the Bly show, it’s still available on the archive too, and it’s worth catching.
