  • Anti-Defamation League and Gender Justice League

    Anti-Defamation League and Gender Justice League
    Aug 19 2019
    We were watching TV the other day when we heard very alarming statistics... Safehome.org had just released a study in which they claimed that hate crime was rising in 30 American cities. And Seattle had one of the steepest increases in hate crimes, according to this study. We realize we need help understanding what's going on in our backyard, in the Puget Sound, so we invited Miri Cypers, Regional Director, Anti-Defamation League Pacific Northwest, and Elayne Wylie, Co-Executive Director for the Gender Justice League, so that we could learn more about hate crimes in this day and age. Listen to our talk here...

  • Operation Ward 57

    Operation Ward 57
    Aug 12 2019
    Motivated by the 9/11 attacks, Aaron Boyle joined the Army after high school following the legacy of his father and brothers who have all served. On Sept. 21, 2010, SGT Boyle was on patrol in the Arghandab River Valley in Afghanistan when he stepped on an improvised explosive device (IED). The blast resulted in the loss of his right arm, right leg, and severe damage to his left leg. To anyone else, this would mean never wanting to get out of bed ever again, but not to SGT Boyle. SGT Boyle is part of a team that, on August 17th, will be flying to Hawaii to compete in the Na Koa Wounded Warrior Regatta in Oahu. Naturally, we wanted to hear about this, so we invited him to the show. We also invited Brittney Hamilton, Executive Director for Operation Ward 57, the organization that is sending Aaron Boyle and 5 other wounded warriors to the Na Koa Wounded Warrior Regatta in Oahu!

    Tacoma-Pierce County Habitat for Humanity
    Aug 5 2019
    Recently, a group of iHeart Media employees got up early on a Saturday and drove to Tacoma to join Tacoma/Pierce County Habitat for Humanity in a build. They had no idea what kind of work they would have to do, but they knew they were gonna have to work hard. How did they know? Because they have done this before. This was Luciana's 3rd build, and Pedro’s 2nd. To talk about the builds, and other cool ways you can help Tacoma/Pierce County Habitat for Humanity, they invited Sherrana Kildun, Chief Development Officer for Tacoma/Pierce County Habitat for Humanity.
