OUR PROGRAMS

Listening Lyrics

Listening Lyrics, Kurt.org, community radio

Welcome to an hour of Listening Lyrics, right here on KDRT 95.7 FM in Davis, California.

No musical passports required. Folk can sit next to funk, jazz can dance with rock, and a singer-songwriter might end up sharing a park bench with a reggae band. Listening Lyrics is your invitation to escape the noise of the day and enter a world of elaborate sounds, unexpected discoveries, and songs that have something to say.

This is the kind of journey only commercial-free community radio can provide.

So close your eyes. Open your ears. Relax your mind. Join me, Pieter Pastoor, as we send color to your ears and wander through the vast landscape of music and lyrics—the grand meeting place of rhythm, imagination, and the remarkable human ability to create art. Whether it's a whisper, a roar, a groove, or a melody you've never heard before, it all belongs here.

Remember: Real Music. Real Community. Real Good Music.

Live Friday 4-5pm
Replays Sunday 11am-12pm

Dr. Gabi Kirk explains the U.S. soldiers at the Arboretum, on Hello Davis!, May 27, 2026

Wed, 05/27/2026 - 5:30pm | Pieter Pastoor

Today on Hello Davis!, Dr. Gabi Kirk talks with David Abramson about our beloved Arboretum in Davis and its militarism in the past.

The Militarized Campus Arboretum research and teaching project explores the histories of everyday militarism hidden in plain sight at the University of California, Davis. From her website: "Our project aims to teach UC Davis campus affiliates, Davis community members, and visitors about the multiple militarized legacies of UC Davis and the land grant university as a whole. The research project was started to explore the use of UC Davis campus facilities as a training school for the Western Signal Corps School during World War II (1943-1944), but has expanded to analyze how U.S. imperialism overseas is intimately linked to domestic policing and settler colonialism."
