After doing the math the founders of Bainbridge Community Broadcasting in Washington State decided that podcasting was a better route to serve their community than low-power FM. Barry and Channie Peters join us to discuss why they made this decision and how they’re using radio to inform and educate the community of Bainbridge Island.


In College Radio Watch Jennifer Waits has news about the new student-focused station at the University of Virginia, and Matthew Lasar tells us his absolutely favorite radio story. Paul and Eric also discuss the top streaming radio platforms in the US, and consider the new classic hip hop radio format.


Our guests Barry and Channie Peters contacted us because they thought Radio Survivor listeners might enjoy hearing their story, and because they hope to hear what you think about their unique take on community radio. Let us know at [email protected]. Also let us know if there’s an interesting or innovative project that we should cover on the show.
