Jess Goddésse joins Dug Deep in the Electric Compost Heap, bringing you the best in divine rock, pop, and assorted randomness — new and old — in celebration of KDRT's 20th Anniversary and our fall FUNdraiser. Tune in at 6 p.m. Pacific as they battle wits and segues — only on KDRT 95.7 fm | KDRT.org.
It's the season of gifting once again and although KDRT is definitely on the Nice list, we can't rely upon Santa to keep us on the air. Therefore, we ask for your donations to help us continue to bring your the finest in low-power community broadcasting. Please visit our Winter Fundraiser page to make your tax-deductable contribution. Plus if you donate $75 or more, you get our limited-edition Great Blue Heron logo t-shirt as thank-you gift. So be sure to add KDRT to your holiday shopping list and be sure to tune into this week's Audio Ecotone to enjoy a mix of appropriately themed music and a very special guest! Listen live on Friday, December 6 at 3:00 pm Pacific Time on KDRT 95.7 FM or stream live or anytime at KDRT.org.
We're fundraising this week to support programs like these. If you can help, please go to KDRT.org/donate. Thank you!
Three episodes of local programs created for Davis community radio station KDRT — two about sports, and one about the aftermath of a traumatic week in Davis — were honored Wednesday in the San Francisco Press Club’s 47th annual Greater Bay Area Journalism Awards.
Rohan Baxi (in left photo, at UC Berkeley), who graduated from Da Vinci High School in June and now attends the University of California at Berkeley, won second and third place in the noncommercial radio/podcast Sports Feature category for episodes titled “Fair Play,” about women’s sports and pay disparity from June 2024, and ”Rowing Stronger,” from July 2024.
Bill Buchanan (right photo, at the awards) placed second among noncommercial public affairs programs with small staffs for “Integrating a traumatic week into Davis,” an interview with Susan Cosio following three violent assaults, including two fatalities, in spring 2023. Cosio, a retired hospital chaplain, pastor and longtime resident of Davis, has spent most of her life helping people navigate crises. This episode also won a Hometown Media Award from the Foundation for the Alliance for Community Media this summer.
