On this week’s episode we look at college radio in Utah. First up, our fearless host Dan Nailen sits down in the studio with Austin Hatch, the Program Director of KWCR 88.1 Weber FM at Weber State University; then we break from the airwaves as SLUG writer Amanda Rock chats with Mama Africa founder Cathy Tshilombo-Lokemba about her business as well as the upcoming Kanda Bongo Man concert; then we’re back on the air as SLUG writer Cody Hudson interviews Will Hatton of KUTE, the internal radio station for the University of Utah. Plus, we preview this month’s Localized showcase with music from The North Valley and The Weekenders. Jeffrey Steadman from Yelp will be returning to the podcast next week to talk about the best spots in the River District, and we want to hear your thoughts on the subject. Call our automated voicemail line at 858-233-9324 and tell us your thoughts. You may get played on the show!
