This week on The Electric Compost Heap on KDRT 95.7FM, we'll be joined in the studio by Jess Goddésse and Eddy Owt to play great music, crack wise, and chat about the importance of having a community media outlet in your region. Lots new tunes, too, so tune in at 6 p.m. Pacific on KDRT.org! Oh, and if you feel so moved, consider making a donation towards KDRT's future. Go to KDRT.org/donate. You'll be glad you did!

In rural counties most pharmacies are independently owned. When these rural pharmacies close, they don’t just leave a gap in healthcare, they affect a region's economy. Because who wants to move to a town where you can’t get a prescription filled for 40 miles? Hear the audio story that I created at the Transom Story Workshop on Catalina Island about Sue Ponce, the sole pharmacist on Catalina Island’s only drug store for three decades. When I arrived at the workshop I thought I was there to learn some audio technical skills. What I didn’t expect was to also rethink how stories work and their place in healthcare.
