From DJ Dirk, the host of this fine show, newly moved to Monday nights:

"Americana music didn't just show up one day -- the genre has evolved from deep and varied country music roots. Twang Thang explores both the old and the new and a bunch of stuff from the in between. [I take you] on a weekly musical journey that lifts the spirits, gets the toes tapping and, well, hopefully adds a little Twang to your life."

Davisville, Feb. 20, 2023: Decades later, the Tuskegee Airmen still have things to tell us

Mon, 02/20/2023 - 5:30pm | Bill Buchanan

George and Edith McMillan Roberts on their wedding day.png

If you’re reading this, you likely already know at least a little about the Tuskegee Airmen. These 16,000 men and women helped defend the United States during World War II even though as Black Americans they had to overcome Jim Crow laws and racism just to be allowed to fight for their home.

Today’s guests are Leigh Roberts and Lanelle Brent, whose father George “Spanky” Roberts was a fighter pilot and Tuskegees’ commander during the war. The sisters help run the Tuskegee Airmen Heritage Chapter of Greater Sacramento. You might have heard them speak in Davis.
