Always evolving, WERU has a couple exciting new programs and volunteers to report on. Phelan Gallagher has begun a music show called Wild Tracks Live (Tuesdays, 2-4 p.m.). The other, Change Agents (1st Thursday, 4-5 p.m.), is a local public affairs program hosted by Steve Wessler. Keep reading to learn more about these great additions to our schedule!
As of January 1, WERU’s news and public affairs program schedule has changed. In short, the new schedule presents Democracy Now! weekdays at 10 a.m, local public affairs programs at 4 p.m., and nationally syndicated programs at 5 p.m. The music schedule will not be impacted by these changes.
