Spring 2025 Fund Drive Spectacular!

 

It’s Spring Fund Drive time on WRIR! We’ll talk about the fund drive on Handful of Brains (originally aired Tuesday, 04/23/2025, 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 above, 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!

You can listen to the show whenever you like here https://vault.wrir.org/shows/202504221900.HandfulOfBrains.mp3 and here's a link to the playlist https://www.wrir.org/2025/04/22/spring-2025-fund-drive-spectacular/#playlist.
