On Tuesday, Mar. 20, tune in for talk radio with Dan Donahue on "The Dan Donahue Show" from noon to 1 p.m. Dan recently retooled his show a bit to take on more of a global education perspective, so tune in to hear the positive changes!
Then at 1 p.m., it's KUR's gay/lesbian talk show "This Way Out" followed at 1:30 by "Fifty One Percent," talk radio for women.

At 2 p.m., it's "Kutztown Live" with our very own Mike R., sitting down at 2:30 p.m. with jazz trumpet player Cindy Bradley to discuss her career as a jazz musician and about her coming appearance at the Berks Jazz Fest! Earlier in the hour, Mike will discuss the day's hot topics and perhaps feature a special phone-in from KU Faculty Union President Dr. Paul Quinn, discussing concerns over the coming year's budget. It's sure to be a stimulating hour of talk this week on "Kutztown Live."

Our four-hour Tuesday talk block ends from 3 to 4 p.m. with KUR's own little local version of NPR's "Car Talk." Ours is called "The KU Car Show" with Mr. Reider. Tune in to talk cars, trucks, and motorcycles with KUR's own vehicle enthusiast.
