Station Archive

“In the Saddle.” Today's show is named after the first song, "I Make My Livin' in the Saddle", but there are other saddle-time songs, such as Cricket Roll from Trinity Seely and Ride the Wind by Dawn Anita.  There are also a few cowboy poems by Mark Munzert and Al "Doc" Mehl and many other great western works that well represent the genre. There are sure to be some that tug on your heartstrings and others that will have you tapping your feet!

All things media!  That's what we talked about.  Jeff Shaw -- intrepid leader of the KDRT project -- tells us about how it all came to be.  First there was Davis Cable Cooperative (DCC), then Davis Community Television (DCTV), then Davis Media Access (DMA) when we added KDRT (KDRT).  ((No, no one has ever been able to explain what the initial of the radio station mean.  I have my own idea, of course.  "DRT" could mean "Davis Radio Transmission", eh what?))

Where we've been, where we are now, and plans for the future.  Enjoy!
