WGXC Afternoon Show: Deven Connelly (The Month Ahead at Cornell Cooperative Extension), Helen Rose (L.A. Fire Relief Benefit Concert), JP Porterfield - "Radio BirdMouth" (Audio)
Today we've got a jam-packed "WGXC Afternoon Show" for you! First up during the 4 p.m. hour, Deven Connelly joins "WGXC Afternoon Show" host Kieran Riley for another edition of "The Month Ahead at Cornell Cooperative Extension." Tune in for an overview of events and activities planned for the month ahead at Cornell Cooperative Extension in Greene and Columbia Counties.
Then at 4:30 p.m., Helen Rose joins to talk about Friday's L.A. Fire Relief Benefit Concert she's organizing at The Half Moon in Hudson featuring Neon Moons with The Weeds and Holland Belle, Allison Godleski, Lizzie Edwards, and Helen Rose. Proceeds from the show will go to Flintridge Center's Dena Fire Relief Fund, which is getting support to families impacted by the Eaton Fire.
And during the 5 p.m. hour, Kieran Riley is joined by prospective programmer JP Porterfield, who will audition his show Radio BirdMouth with a piece titled "Key to the Highway" for WGXC!
Radio BirdMouth is a loose-form audio roadtrip woven together from fragmentary spoken word narratives and sound manipulations.
JP Porterfield is a visual artist and musician living in Saugerties, NY. He comes from a large and loud family intent on sharing stories from their lives. JP has followed suit, always at the ready to pass along an anecdote or two, whether asked for or not.
Tune into the “WGXC Afternoon Show” for local news, interviews with community leaders and personalities, reports on cultural issues, a rundown of public meetings and local and regional events, weather updates, and more about and for the community, made by volunteers in the community.
Some segments featured on the show include "Better Weather" produced by the Catskill Maker Syndicate, "Food Segment" by Tepper B.T., "Cool Katts: Some cat-tastic and meow-mazing music" by DJ Electro Kitty, "The Month Ahead at Cornell Cooperative Extension with Deven Connelly", and the quarterly "Shaker Show" with folks from Shaker Museum.
