Where can you hear a your neighbor’s heavy metal show one minute, a different neighbor’s current affairs talk show a minute later, only to find something a couple hours later that you didn’t even know you wanted but is now your favorite thing in the world? 

On community radio, of course!

Recently, Neroli Devaney, the brains behind Humboldt Hot Air — a community radio station in Arcata — joined KSLG DJ Rhi Marie to talk about the glories and headaches of running a low-power FM station, about what makes community radio different than other forms of media, and about the continuing work she and her colleagues are doing to make KHHA an ever-truer “voice of the community.”

People in the Humboldt Bay area can find Humboldt Hot Air at 94.7 on the FM dial, and the station streams online at humboldthotair.org.
