KUR Radio - today, it's Latino music, news, and commentary from 5 to 6 p.m. with "Notas Latinas."

On Wednesday, tune in at 2:45 p.m. for "The Diversity Rest Stop" interview program, this week sitting down with legendary smooth jazz singer Michael Franks. Franks' music is not just music but almost poetry, custom-crafting words like an artist into playful, meditative, and jazzy works of art. Michael has a new album out and KUR has the great pleasure, after several years of searching, finding Michael Franks for an interview.

At 3 p.m., "Groovy" Greg Dottor takes control of the airwaves with "The Heart of Rock and Soul."

On Friday please check out "Remix Radio with B.Lee" at 1 p.m., "Monsoon Mike's Jukebox of Cheese" at 2 p.m., "Anything Goes" with Lise Avery at 4 p.m., "Fifty One Percent" (women's issues talk) at 5 p.m., "This Way Out" (gay/lesbian issues talk) at 5:30 p.m. and "The Drumstick" with Dillon Snyder at 6 p.m.

All this in addition to our special weekend programming which can be found by clicking on our "Schedule" link at http://www.kutztown.edu/divisions/studentservices/departments/radioservices/schedule/index.aspx .
