Goodbye, RadioWest Friday Podcast Feed!

RadioWest Friday
Renee Bright

KUER

Over the summer, the RadioWest team tossed around a lot of ideas on how to improve the show. When we finally landed on airing RadioWest twice a week, we wanted to make sure one of those hours dealt with local issues. Thus was born what we named RadioWest Friday to distinguish it from the second hour, which generally features an interview with a nationally-known guest. 

We put RadioWest Friday in its own podcast feed … and then fielded questions from listeners wondering why we weren’t podcasting the first hour of the show. Some of you found RadioWest Friday (bravo!) but many of you didn’t, and so, after two months of life, we are killing off the podcast feed for RadioWest Friday. Both hours of the show will now be available in our RadioWest podcast feed. Please subscribe!
