That's how the DA helps

Two officers from the Yolo County District Attorney's office came today to help us learn how to be safer in our modern world.  Kevin Clark spoke to us today about current risks -- especially with communications such as email and phone -- and how to avoid becoming a victim. Lyndsey Hall told what the DA's office is doing to help victims either recover or minimize the damage done.  Preventative measure to take were shared and places/ ways to get information were offered.

Senior or not, this program can help you stay safer.

That's Life for Michael O'Hearn

JAZZ !!!!  History and current activity.

Come and meet Michael O'Hearn -- musician, trumpet player,  and manager of  "The New Harmony Jazz Band"

He delayed college until very late and just graduated from UCD last year. 

Wheel-chair-bound.  Moved from Sacramento (and their college) and transferred to UCD in 2014 = part time work led to his degree in 2018.  

Song played from their YouTube recording. Their community band played  the John Natsoulas Gallery at a monthly event before the pandemic.  

That's Freddie Oakley in 2019

Do you remember when Freddie Oakley was our Elections official for Yolo County?  I've know Freddie for many years, interviewed her on my television series back in the 1990s, and even had her guest-host that show ("Thoughtfulness" on DCTV) once.  Today on That's Life, we reminisce about the old days (good old days? bad old days?) and hear what Freddie has been doing since she retired.  Retired?  HAH!  Busier than ever is more like it!  Hope you enjoy the chat.

Margaret pus macaron equals business

Hometown gal makes good!  And makes good margaron!

     Margaret Waterhouse is the baker and seller of her dessert specialty -- the Margaron -- and the owner of her own two-year-old company, W. Margaron. The W. is for her surname (Waterhouse) and Margaron is a word she made up -- a merging of Margaret and macaron.

That's Gitane

     Gitane is another talk show host here at KDRT.  With her weekly program "Heart to Heart" (live Wenzdays at noon), she has been a mainstay of our station since it first opened.  Listen today to hear about this facinating French woman and stories of how she came to be here and now.  

     Growing up in French Canada, moving to the States, getting a PhD, being a professional when women were scarce in her field, hosting her own show for years on a commercial station in Florida (where she was known as "Dr G"), living in LOTS of places, and being involved in Davis for many years now.  Her first name is Gitane. Her last name is Gitane. Her ONLY name is Gitane! (If I were to try and show the pronunciation, I'd probably write it as  zhe-TAHN [the "G" is soft and the name rhymes with "on"].)
