Handful Of Brains

Spring 2025 Fund Drive Spectacular!

Tue, Apr 22, 2025

It’s Spring Fund Drive time on WRIR! We’ll talk about the fund drive on Handful of Brains (Tuesday, 7 – 9 PM). I hope you’ll donate to keep this crazy, beautiful, diverse, all-volunteer community radio station going. You can donate at wrir.org. If you want to donate at the premium levels and get some stuff, like the fine t-shirt pictured below, or the cool baseball hat, that would be awesome. But if you can’t donate at that level, any amount you can give helps us pay the bills. I thank you in advance!

We’ve got an eclectic mix of music for your pleasure as well, including Peter Gabriel, Patti Smith, Starchild & the New Romantic, Little Simz, Squeeze, Sufjan Stevens, Sarabeth Tucek, & more!

Dial your FM radio receiver to frequency 97.3 or listen on the Information Superhighway at wrir.org or the TuneIn Radio app.

You can listen to past shows here https://handfulofbrains.blogspot.com/
