HIGH COUNTRY MUSIC RADIO

with host Rusty Nail

We’ll explore the diverse musical styles and artists found within “country” and bluegrass. High Country will feature those musicians that sought, or currently seek, an alternative to the conventional “Music Row” sound of top 100 radio. Together, we'll tap our feet to music born from the mountains, plains, rivers and deserts.

Consider this an invitation to leave the big city behind.

Davisville, Dec. 3, 2018: Robin Affrime helped build CommuniCare into a significant Yolo healthcare asset

Mon, 12/03/2018 - 6:05pm | Bill Buchanan

Robin Affrime.jpg

CommuniCare, which began as the Davis Free Clinic in the 1970s, provides primary healthcare and related services to about 10 percent of Yolo County’s population. If people can’t pay, they still get care. How did a clinic that used to fit in a converted house downtown grow into a set of healthcare centers that are critically important to local healthcare? Robin Affrime is part of the answer. She was CEO of CommuniCare for 19 years until retiring this fall, after starting there as a volunteer 35 years ago. On today’s Davisville she talks about CommuniCare, what it does, how it grew, the role it plays in local healthcare, and offers her ideas on how she’d approach the perennial problem in U.S. healthcare: how to pay for it all.

Davisville, Nov. 26, 2018: Listening to a survivor, and the story, of Jonestown (repeat from 2014)

Mon, 11/26/2018 - 6:05pm | Bill Buchanan

In August 2014, author Julia Scheeres and Thom Bogue spoke at the Avid Reader about her book, “A Thousand Lives: The Untold Story of Jonestown,” and his memories of the remote South American camp of the Peoples Temple where 918 people were killed or committed suicide one day in November 1978. Bogue, then a teenager and now mayor of Dixon, was one of the relatively few survivors. Scheeres’ critically praised book draws on previously unavailable recordings and records from the temple, which once had a major presence in San Francisco. They talk about it in this 2014 interview on Davisville.

That’s one of the discussions on today’s 8th annual fall movie show with Davis film critic Derrick Bang (Davis Enterprise, Derrick Bang on Film). He also lists a few end-of-year movies he looks forward to, a few that have him anticipating the worst, and one that he says will likely allow no middle ground of opinion: Anna and the Apocalypse.
