Congress voted to eliminate public media funding – against the will of the American people. We’re not backing down. If you’re frustrated by this vote, take action. Tell your Members of Congress to restore public media funding through the appropriations process. https://bit.ly/4m1zcN5

My connection with public radio goes back over 4 decades and I've enjoyed visiting many stations from Alaska to Louisiana. Now local public radio stations across the country are facing an unprecedented crisis. Proposals to eliminate federal funding threaten to dismantle the very infrastructure that keeps 99% of Americans informed, safe, and connected. The threat is real, and it is happening now. Without your voice, your support, and your action, entire stations across the country will go dark. Please... Let Your Voice Be Heard. Contact your elected officials before it’s too late. Tell your lawmaker: "Save my public radio station." Many thanks, Fiona Protect My Public Media NPR NPR Music

To mark folksinger, songwriter and activist Peggy Seeger's final farewell and 90th birthday tour of 25 shows currently playing across the UK and Ireland, we remember this exclusive concert on The Thistle & Shamrock on NPR Music, when Peggy explored transatlantic song journeys with Scottish songwriter and folksinger Alan Reid. A very special and unforgettable evening.

American folk singer, songwriter and activist Peggy Seeger is joined by Scots-language singer and songwriter Alan Reid and host Fiona Ritchie.
