Netanyahu hurts Biden. A Houston mayor is incompatible with election deniers. ESCALATION! ( )

Is hunting good for the environment?

This week on Writer’s Voice, Sunday on HD2 at 8am....We spend the hour with Brant MacDuff talking about his book, The Shotgun Conservationist: Why Environmentalists Should Love Hunting.

MacDuff tells the story of how he became a hunter and the colorful characters, big personalities, and firsthand research that helped change his mind. His journey led to a deeper understanding of how hunting protects public lands, supports sustainable ecosystems, encourages biodiversity, and can help bridge social and political divides. Along the way, he introduces us to a new generation of hunters, different from timeworn stereotypes and preconceptions. And who better than MacDuff to tell the story? A trans man living in Brooklyn, he defies expectations of who hunts and invites people of all backgrounds into the field.

The final Saturday of January 2021 and where are we? That question is answered by each of us as we likely know where we are and if not, do you have anymore of what you took? Does it make you want to tune into 90.1 KPFT [kpft.org] this Saturday at 3 PM?

This week's DEADbEAT is full up with music that will make you want to do the driver's seat boogie or dance around the house. Some great jams some rock and roll and a Dead Set from the Chicago Uptown Theater (Jan 30 1978)

Now for the good part... Mr. David Baes joins me for a quick break at 4:30. David is our new GM and has plans to shake it up. You may already noticed an improved sound quality in our FM signal and Galveston will soon be treated to a restored transmitter function... Additionally there are new shows already airing and more to come.

Finally I am pleased to announce for our next fund drive which starts on Feb 4th there is a new DEADbEAT T Shirt which is a beauty (Houston Beauty that is).... You can get one for a $100 pledge to DEADbEAT starting with the drive. You call 713-526-5738 and give 'em you digits and say I want that DEADbEAT T shirt or click-click at KPFT.org....

See you tomorrow and I hope your support of KPFT will be there when we ask - that phone call, that click does make a DIFFERENCE

Hey all who love and listen! Not sure if today's WOS is a repeat. Roark said thanks for all B-Day wishes. Well it's my B-Day as well!
(1/27) Happy Day Roark!
Thank you for playing my songs! This year we will be FREEWHEELING
Thank you for playing my songs! Stay safe and don’t forget your mask!
Community radio is a great thing. It allows producers to be unchecked by any guidance which can lead to chaos both in an introverted and extroverted manner. That leads us to DEADbEAT for January 23 (Saturday) at 3 PM CST on 90.1 KPFT or streamed at kpft.org ...
Anyway back to the chaos. When putting this show together and considering its good celebrate the anniversary of a unique GD show... this date offered a sparse choice but...
The couple of things I dug up are both included in this show; Buckle-up
First the Jerry Garcia band with guest vocalist Sarah Fulcher - a trip.. Then the Grateful Dead Live at Honolulu Civic Auditorium that concludes with a Lovelight from the depths.
See you Saturday at 3 even if you are on your WAY
Peace

Please get back to the station.....u should have been fixing that building.....long, long ago......get the money from the other stations.....as you have done from this location before.....we need this to happen ASAP
