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 9-10am
DJ(s): 
Preacher

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!
