As a volunteer, I’ve followed WMNF to 3 homes over 4 decades. After many years hosting a show, I still marvel at the intimacy of our time together. It doesn’t feel like broadcasting; we’re just hanging out, good friends sharing music and ideas, linked by an interest in people and issues beyond our own personal lives. And we don’t just play the music: We talk about the artists and the stories behind the songs, bringing them to life in a way that simply streaming music can’t do.
In my other life, I’m Professor Emerita at USF, but my favorite title is Best of the Bay from Creative Loafing for my WMNF show.
