IMPLOSION

IMPLOSION is hosted by Nick Saloman, front person of The Bevis Frond. Born and raised in London, England, Nick began buying records as a small child in the late 1950s, then moved on to going to gigs and playing in bands as a teenager in the late ’60s. IMPLOSION is simply an hour of Nick playing the music he loves – psychedelia, rock, folk, beat, jazz, soul, punk, and more – with a bit of chat thrown in for good measure.

Live Wednesday 4-5pm

Replays Sunday 7-8pm

The Wild Fox Party

Tune in for a wide variety of roots music — including doo-wop, gospel, jazz, blues, rock 'n' roll, Latin, African, and hillbilly/country bluegrass — from the early 1920s to contemporary times. The Wild Fox Party focuses on vocal groups , small-group ensembles, and outstanding vocalists and instrumentalists who never or hardly ever get heard. The music provides a forum for learning about history and diverse cultures, and it does so through the exposure of music as art, highlighting points in time that will last forever via the medium of audio recordings.

Davisville, Sept. 8, 2025: We talk with Benjy Egel, food editor for Abridged, a major new source of regional news

Mon, 09/08/2025 - 5:30pm | Bill Buchanan

Benjy Egel, Abridged senior food editor.jpg

Greater Sacramento will gain a promising new source of news and information when Abridged, part of Sacramento public TV station KVIE, officially debuts on Sept. 16. Benjy Egel (pictured), who grew up in Davis and formerly wrote about food for the Sacramento Bee, is Abridged’s senior food editor, and he describes the new journalism project today on Davisville.

The venture employs several journalists who, like Egel, have already worked in this region. We learn how Abridged will work and what it will write about (generally no crime, or politics that aren’t local). Its main product will be a written newsletter, plus video, free to all. The name plays off the idea of building bridges through information, Tower bridge, and writing succinctly. He says Abridged already has enough money for the first three years despite the Trump administration's cuts to public media.

Because Benjy knows Davis, we also took this opportunity near the end of the show to get his thoughts on the city's places to eat.
