OUR OCTOBER 2015 RADIO SHOWS ARE NOW ONLINE

December 26, 2015 (San Diego’s East County) -- Our October 2015 radio shows are now online!  You can listen online now (sound files may take a minute to load). For links to listen to the shows plus a full list of topics and interviews in October, click here and scroll down.

We covered new laws enacted in Sacramento as well as hot local topics ranging from water rate hikes to health alerts. We interviewed some fascinating guests, including Roberto Alvarez, whose family helped desegregate a school in Lemon Grove, Wendy Patrick on California’s new right-to-die law, Beth Klareich from Shabbat San Diego, and activists seeking help for Lyme disease patients. On Bookshelf, hear from Roger Conlee, author of Dare the Devil, and David Schmidt, author of Holy Ghost Stories. We also produced a Halloween special complete with some haunting East County ghost stories.

The East County Magazine Show airs Mondays and Fridays from 5 to 6 p.m. on KNSJ, 89.1 FM.  The shows rerun on Tuesdays at 9 a.m. and Saturdays at 8 a.m. Pacific Standard Time.

Audio files to listen to shows are at the bottom of this page, below the index of shows.
