Get To Know Your Neighbor Tues at 8am

kenmalloy — Mon, 13 Aug 2007 18:02:37 -0500

This Week on Get To Know Your Neighbor, host Ken Malloy interviews KRUU's own Dennis James [Gravel Road Radio: Tuesdays 2pm-5pm] and Lauryn Shapter [Crooker Sisters' Radio Hour: Thursdays 10am-noon]--a.k.a. Truckstop Souvenir.

Three people sharing two microphones, certainly didn't hold back this pair of Fairfield's newer residents and neighbors (10 months).

Dennis and Lauryn are what I call "authentic". They say what they mean and talk from their heart. Embodying a true pioneer spirit, hear about their decision to emigrate from Seattle to our "FAIR" town.

Set your dial and stay awhile.

Thursday August 9th @1:00pm on GTKYN.
