This Weekend on Coyote Radio


Howdy Coyotistas!

Our fifth weekend of experimental community radio broadcasting on AM 1670. Arnie, in the KYXS-Coyote Radio weather room, says the rain and snow will let up and we'll have a cold - but unwindy - pair of days.

Still time to tune in and snuggle up, baby's! This weekend we bring you DJ sets from Studio A in The Raven Cafe building - postulating the existence of "Country That Doesn't Suck" and a little something we're calling "Dr. Freud, It Was Like This . . . ," famed alt-60's DJ Leslie Stevens' off the beaten path good time oldies, an interview with best selling crime fiction writer Anne Frasier, Bob Wright's Baseball History, spotlight on Coyote Radio Theater writer/voice actor/spokesmodel Christian Smith and a whole lot more.

Tune in, Stay in and warm up, that's what we say!

(9 am) In For Questioning - from Studio A in The Raven Cafe building - Angie Johnson-Schmit interviews chart topping paranormal crime fiction writer Anne Frasier. Sez Angie, "In this week's episode, we talk with Anne about PALE IMMORTAL and the further Tuonela, WI adventures in her upcoming book, GARDEN OF DARKNESS. Listen in to find out what she would do if faced with a (possible) real-life vampire, what her fav. classic horror movie is, and what decidedly unscary things are found on her desk."

Tune in for the interview show that goes beyond "just the facts, m'am."


(9:30 am) Coyote Radio Theater - "Fake English Accent Theatre" A rare look into the soul of longtime Coyote Radio Theater writer/spokesmodel Christian Smith, Comic Genius. Also, Christian's now infamous April Fools Prank on Prescott Arts Beat.

(10:20 am) Baseball History - Bob Wright walks us down the hallowed halls of the National Past Time, including stops in all forms of the field. This week includes a spotlight on Moe Berg, who couldn't bat his way into the books, but made up for it in many other ways.



(10:40 am) Prescott Arts Beat - from Studio A in The Raven Cafe building - When you talk about hard workin', local theatre innovation, one name leads the list: Blue Rose Theatre's Jody Drake can hardly sit still as she talks about her work at the only historical interpretation theatre group in the Southwest. Includes Andrew's 5 Big Questions.



(11:30 am) Crazy Dog Audio Theatre - "Infidel (part 1)" Roger Gregg's challenging radio drama about ordinary people caught up in the Crusades. An allegory for our times? Perish the thought!
