This week on Dashboard Diaries, host RayK gets all shook up, spinning rockabilly favorites from the King, the Blasters, the Mavericks, Eddie Cochran, Robert Gordon, and a whole passel o’ like-minded greasers. So put on your car coat and black slacks, check your ducktail, and call “shotgun” – we’re going ridin’ Thursday, 3-5 p.m. Pacific, on KDRT 95.7 FM and KDRT.org. Stream shows anytime on the web!
Today on Hello Davis!, host Anoosh Jonjonian speaks with Alexandra Lee-Job, a founding member of Davis Phoenix Coalition.
The conversation explores the coalition’s mission to unite the Davis community by confronting intolerance, preventing hate, and promoting a civic culture that values diversity and inclusion in all forms. Alexandra also discusses the harmful idea of “permanent immigrants” — when people are still seen as outsiders even after generations in America.
Most of all, this is a story about the power of one woman’s voice and how determined action can help shape and strengthen an entire community.
Today’s topics: growing bamboo for stakes, purple flowering trees, getting started with houseplants, trying to control bermudagrass, growing dianthus, broccoli flowering, and more.

This week on Listening Lyrics, it's the Alex Jenkins Trio! These Sacramento musicians are among the most talented in the region, truly creative, and promise music full of beautiful surprises. The trio's latest record, Black Bird, received a four-star review in All About Jazz and is being played on radio stations across the country. Due to his in-depth study of the music of different cultures, Alex’s playing transcends musical traditions and boundaries. His expression of rhythm is heavily influenced by his study of Tabla (a North Indian classical percussion instrument). As a result, he has become known for his creative approach to music and his unique ability to fuse rhythmic ideas from various disciplines into one cohesive sound. Hear Listening Lyrics Fridays on KDRT 95.7fm + KDRT.org! Listen anytime via the web and the podcasts.
