RoCM Playlist: 10 Feb 2024

Not a lot of news this week, but next week is a big week with the KCSB Annual Fund Drive starting on Wednesday, February 14th and going through February 23rd. It’s the one time of year in which we ask the KCSB listeners to donate to the station and help support community radio in Santa Barbara.

I will also have the results of the special election for NY-3, as everyone’s “favorite” (sarcasm intended) white shirted moderate Democrat Tom Suozzi attempts to win back a seat he abandoned to George Santos. To say that I am not a fan of Tom Suozzi is an understatement, especially after his disastrous run for governor. But alas, welcome to Long Island, where everything that is old is new again – and the reward for undermining your own party is yet another seat at the table.

Here is the playlist. Don’t forget that you can listen online at KCSB-FM’s website and there’s an online archive available for two weeks after the show airs.
