Most of the regular visitors to my blogcasa, commentors and silent folks alike, already know about KKFI–my–yes “my” community radio station because I am one of the many many listeners who support Radio Like It’s Seldom Heard with our own $$$. Yep, KKFI is totally listener funded. Wrap your head around that concept the next time you want something besides audio advertising galore.
What is heard at KKFI? Local arts and music showcases, live talk radio shows like the Radio Redux, Labor Radio, the All Souls Unitarian Forum, the Tenth Voice, and EcoRadio. All this and more. Music: Jazz, Blues, Hip Hop, Folk, Rock, Reggae, Native American, World, techno, Latin, Persian, Chamber…. There are even “guest djs” on KKFI–and they usually heat things up real sweet and spicy.
The program schedule is stuffed 24/7 365–and staffed by volunteers. Yes, those local voices you hear are indeed LOCAL Kansas City People–not some high dollar corporate primed personality divas.

Some KKFI via YoTtube–Val interviews the Gift and beyond. This is Community Radio–not corporate cuteness.
Just a small taste of “Radio Like You’ve Never Heard It Before” -IF you haven’t streamed it yet.
IF everyone just in Kansas City who listens to KKFI would cough up one buck for the station’s operating bills asap–this fundraiser would be DONE NOW! Yes, Kansas City–and beyond–it is time to COUGH for the delight of your ears. Call in your pledge, stamp and toss it in one of those blue metal postal boxes, walk it in to the corner of 39th and Main, or just cyber-space it online at www.kkfi.org. No amount is too small nor too grande.
