Roots, Shoots and Leaves

Roots, Shoots and Leaves' DJ Tree has a theory of music that involves a tree. Suffice it to say that it involves a trinity — an exploration of themes and connections among recording artists — and otherwise very few boundaries. Listen for music old and new, known and unknown. And if you listen long enough, you may experience some musical enlightenment.

Live Tuesday 6-8pm

Davisville, July 29, 2019: Going back to high school, sort of

Mon, 07/29/2019 - 6:10pm | Bill Buchanan

Cindy Evans, Margaret Bridge July 2019 (1).jpg

High school’s an interesting time. You’re exiting childhood, not yet an adult, you’re trying to figure out who you are, while fitting in, while going your own way, and your classmates are suddenly attractive in ways they weren’t just a few years before. And you’re trying to set yourself up for college or a job, while under pressure to achieve. Whatever high school means to you, when it’s done … you move on. Until enough years have passed and you hear from a classmate that your class is having a reunion! Want to come?

On today’s Davisville, my guests are reunion organizers from two Davis High School classes that are having significant anniversaries this fall and summer: Cindy Cooper Evans (left) from the Class of 1969, and Margaret Bridge from the Class of 1999. We talk about the reunions, what they enjoy about them, how classmates and their attitudes toward the high school years change as they get older, and what advice they’d have for their high school selves.

Davisville, July 15, 2019: Davis needs better broadband, task force says, and public should own it

Mon, 07/15/2019 - 6:10pm | Bill Buchanan

In June, a Davis task force advised Davis to act quickly to improve the city’s broadband service, and recommended a municipal network as the best option, pending a detailed look at what that would involve. City Hall has agreed to pursue that closer look. On today’s Davisville, Carolyn Stiver and Lorenzo Kristov, two members of the Broadband Advisory Task Force, talk about the need for broadband, options to pay for it, and more.

Davisville, July 1, 2019: Many homeless people in Davis are finding homes, but more people are becoming homeless

Mon, 07/01/2019 - 6:10pm | Bill Buchanan

shopping cart along 2nd, July 1, 2019.jpg

Ryan Collins started working for the city of Davis as homeless outreach services coordinator in August 2017. He has contacted approximately 300 homeless people in Davis since then, he says, and has helped about a third of them find permanent shelter. This would have reduced the homeless population of Davis … except that a greater number has fallen into homelessness. On today’s Davisville we talk with Ryan and with Paul Doroshov, deputy police chief for Davis, about Ryan’s job working one-to-one with the homeless, how his work fits into the larger set of services and strategies that respond to homelessness, the city’s plan to hire another person whose job will be similar to Ryan’s, and how the role of the police has evolved since Paul joined the Davis Police as a patrol officer 30 years ago.
