Praise Time with Preacher

Praise Time with Preacher

The word "gospel" is derived for the old Anglo-Saxon word meaning “good message” or “good news." Host Preacher believes gospel music is powerful, whether the listener is or is not Christian — that everyone can enjoy listening to gospel because it is uplifting and inspiring, sung with passion and belief from the artist, touching all who hear it in a good and heartfelt way. The aim of Praise Time is to help listeners find what Preacher believes lives in everyone: a good spirit that drives us to be the best we can be.

Live Tuesday 4-5pm
Replays Sunday 7-8am
DJ(s):

Sue Barnes and the Joy of Travel - September 2, 2026

Thu, 09/03/2026 - 9:23am | Pieter Pastoor

279582529_116744181016116_668648111309042443_n.jpg

This week’s host is Maria Lucchesi, Supervisor at the Davis Senior Center. Maria’s guest is Sue Barnes, who joins us to talk about the Davis Travelaires and the opportunities they offer for travel, adventure, and connection.

Sue knows a thing or two about travel. She currently serves as the UC Retirees Travel Coordinator and trip liaison. Before retiring in 2019, Sue spent nearly 25 years with the University of California, holding a variety of administrative positions at UC Davis in housing, campus events, and campus recreation. She later served seven years as director of the UC Davis Retiree Center, followed by three years directing the UCLA Emeriti/Retirees Relations Center.

And when Sue isn’t helping others plan their next adventure, she enjoys traveling herself—along with biking, sewing, crafting, and spending time with family and friends.

So, pack your imaginary suitcase as Maria and Sue introduce us to the Davis Travelaires.

The Yolo County Breakdown for Aug. 28, 2026

Fri, 08/28/2026 - 10:00am | Rocky Outcrop

Dolly Parton was a legend. Her passing this week means the world lost one of its brightest lights. She was smart, funny, sassy, and one of the greatest entertainers the world has ever known. This week's installment of the Yolo County Breakdown celebrates her enormous contributions by presenting her music and letting her singing, songwriting, and pure heart shine a light for all of us to see. We will always love you, Dolly!
