I'm streaming radio this morning, visiting some old roots music friends. This week is FUNdrive week at community radio,KRFC-FM in Fort Collins, Colorado. We started out 5-1/2 years ago to bring a diverse mix of roots music and public affairs programming from a local perspective. As a volunteer effort (the manager was the only paid staff to start), the programming ebbs and flows over time. Here's a snapshot of where they're at today:
