IMPLOSION

IMPLOSION blue graphic

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.

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

hello-davis.png

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."
