The Return of Carl and Thom
In 2012 when Clear Channel ended KPOJs progressive talk radio station in Portland, our community lost two of the most popular progressive talk hosts our we ever had - Carl Wolfson and Thom Hartmann. XRAYs launch will reunite and broadcast those two. Carl Wolfson connects Oregons listeners with their elected representatives, while adding a sharp wit to his progressive perspective on the news. Thom Hartmanns thoughtful coverage of politics and current events will return (live and in full) to Portland, its original home.
We are a lot more than just politics; you are too. XRAY.FM will source great local content and bring it to the community and beyond. Food, history, comedy, music, and game changers. Northwest icons Cort and Bobby will return to FM with Welcome to that Whole Thing. The groundbreaking Lund Report will bring you health policy news. Carla Axtman from Blue Oregon and former KPOJ wildcard Adam Klugman will report current events. Bitch Media will bring their feminist perspective to pop culture with Popaganda. Listeners will enjoy Kickass Oregon History's take on our past. We will innovate with new shows, including programs from Native American voices, a Non-Profit Hour, a Millennial Retort focusing on next generation doers, and a food report from Feast co-founders Carrie Welch and Mike Thelin. Plus a bunch more stuff well announce later. (As a supporter, youll get to hear about new announcements first, of course.) XRAY.FM will put a boom mic to the best of Portland.
