    The Free Speech Zone – Sunday – December 4th – 7-8 pm – Host: DJ Big Brother – Then Stay Tuned for “Lives in the Balance” 8-9 pm
    December 1st, 2011

    Tune in to The Free Speech Zone on Sunday night December 4th at 7 pm to hear a Jim Puplava / Financial Sense Newshour interview with Peter Schweizer, author of Throw Them All Out: How Politicians and Their Friends Get Rich Off Insider Stock Tips, Land Deals, and Cronyism. Schweizer describes one of the biggest scandals in American politics that is waiting to explode. He tells the story of the inside game in Washington and shows how the permanent political class enriches itself at the expense of the rest of us.

    On WSCA-LP 106.1 FM – Portsmouth Community Radio (streaming via www.portsmouthcommunityradio.org for those outside the broadcast signal limits) 

    Then stay tuned for some great music on Lives In The Balance from 8 to 9 pm.  

    This week is our annual fall fundraising show when we appeal to you to pick up your phone and make a pledge of support to keep unique and valuable shows like this one on the air. As you know, we’re a non profit, volunteer-operated radio station. Every dollar we raise is important to us. We ask that you donate $10, $25, $50, $100 or more—whatever you feel fits your budget. You can put it on a credit card, send us a check later, whatever works for you. This year, we’re asking  that you also consider a sustaining membership: Choose a monthly amount you feel you can commit to, and you can have it drawn from your checking account or from a credit card each month. (Of course, the arrangement is cancelable at any time.) You can do this by phone when you call in, or you can do it on the website.
    Thank you so much for all you do already. And I hope we’ll be hearing from you during this important pledge drive.

    Kind regards,  Brad  aka dj Big Brother

    Audio Theatre – Tuesday – May 10 – 6 to 8 PM – Special “Seed the Power” Pledge Drive Show – Featuring a Live Audio Theatre Performance – 603-430-9722
    May 10th, 2011


    “Seed the Power” and help Portsmouth Community Radio stay on the air as we grow into our 7th season.  Please call 603-430-9722 to make a pledge of any amount during Audio Theatre, but listen for our special offers and our new “Members Discount Card”  that can net you discounts at an ever-growing list of local businesses who are supporting Portsmouth Community Radio!

     

    Tonight, in addition to conducting our Seed the Power Membership Drive, host John Lovering (above photo) and guest, Chuck Curtis; along with our phone man, Richard Jenisch will be there to receive your pledges and to entertain you with some unique Audio Theatre programming.

    You will hear an original story by Chuck Curtis starring Chuck and his ten-year-old granddaughter in “Trees, Bulls and Owls.”  Not only is this a very cute story with a very important message about the environment, but Chuck’s granddaughter does an incredible job in her debut on Audio Theatre!

    Then John Lovering and Chuck team up performing an original comedy by Chuck Curtis entitled  ”Auditions”…  a story about a club owner who wants to hire a standup comedian for his club, but secretly wants to be a standup comedian himself.  The only problem is that he has absolutely no talent.  Maybe the comedian he hires for his club can give him a few pointers!

    This evening you will also hear several short plays that we would consider “contemporary” as they come from a series entitled Earplay and were originally produced at WHA at the University of Wisconsin in the 1970′s.  The shows were funded by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting with additional grants from the National Endowment for the Arts.  Most of the writers were students at the University of Wisconsin.. the plays are crisp, unique, and extremely well done.  They were originally aired on NPR.   Our recordings are all on vinyl, so you will be hearing stories on the same medium (vinyl records) on which they were originally distributed to NPR stations almost 40 years ago.

    From the Earplay series you will hear What Do You Tell the Laughing Wind? by Robert K. Anderson; A Short Sweet Life by Edna Schappert; Kindly Replace the Receiver, The Incinerator, and Alice Throu the Intercom all by Jean Raymond Maljean.

    We will be airing these short plays throughout tonight’s broadcast.  Don’t miss them…. they are very well done.   And while you are listening to these unique shows on Portsmouth Community Radio Audio Theatre, please call 603-430-9722 with a pledge of any amount.. renew a membership, become a member…. listen for Pledge Drive information between the featured shows.  Please show your support for Audio Theatre and Portsmouth Community Radio.

    Finally, tonight, John and Chuck will perform live in the studio … a recreation of a very funny skit by Mike Nichols and Elaine May entitled The Sixty-Five Dollar Funeral.

    This all happens tonight.. Tuesday – May 10th from  6 to 8 pm at 106.1 locally or streaming online at www.wscafm.org and go to the top of the page and click on “Listen Now”.
    Thank you in advance for your support.
