Writing on Air

05/14/2025

Well, we've moved to a new city, and had to part ways with KZFR. They will always be my #1 station in the world.
Maybe we will return again one day. Or appear on a new community radio station for a stint...or begin a podcasting journey.
No matter the next steps, I may as well keep interviewing right?
In fact...

Join us, during the KZFR 90.1 FM spring pledge drive, while we interview best-selling author Matthew Distefano about his newest book! We will also be gifting a few signed copies of Matthew's books to those who call and make a donation during our show.

"Mimetic theory and Middle Earth", the follow up to the award winning The Wisdom of Hobbits, is the latest book by Matthew J. Distefano. In it, the author explores Rene Girard's mimetic theory by using Tolkien's legendarium as a canvas.

📚✨Tonight's special poet guest is Luke Anderson! 📚✨

Luke Anderson (Raised in South-East Asia and the UK, he has lived in Butte County since 2004) is a writer of poetry, prose and song who draws inspiration from stillness, wild beauty, and the need to dig deep to meet the challenge of our times. With themes of grief and gratitude, longing and belonging, his words are a journey home through the landscape of the human heart, an invitation into a more soulful way of being, and an encouragement to show up wholeheartedly and give everything we are here to give. His writing can be found at https://www.lukeanderson.net/writing and his music at https://www.solwatermusic.com/

Tomorrow, live on KZFR 90.1 FM at 7pm, we sit down with the Bonfire storytelling creator Bonnie Pipkin and guests about a truly amazing event in our community!

Bonfire is a multi-generational storytelling event held the first week of the month at the Chico Women’s Club. Every month, author and educator, Bonnie Pipkin, along with local handyman, Dylan Latimer, work with 6 storytellers, each from a different age decade, to bring their ten-minute stories to the stage. Bonfire celebrates age representation and diversity in all its many forms. Also joining the conversation in the studio are past participants Andrew Kinley and Adrianna Wiley. You can follow the events on Instagram -
