Thick & Fabulous

Thick & Fabulous is a show that talks about, celebrates, and offers support for all the joys and challenges associated with women's health. Especially women of color who are in their 40's and older. We will discuss everything from dating to trying to snatch back that waist after having children and the daily stress of life all while living on a budget. As we get older our metabolism slows down and many of us begin to get "thick" around the waist, and it becomes harder to lose weight. However, that doesn't negate how fabulous you are. We will laugh, cry, vent, and get informed about all the things that affect our health and most importantly, support each other as we become Thick & Fabulous.

Strange Currency

Strange Currency

Favorites from the past, present, and future. Nighttime becomes eclectic. Tom Petty once sang of the last DJ, the mythical creature who plays what they want to play. Since its start in 2009, Strange Currency has adhered to that idea: A show that was not influenced by trends but not ignorant of them either, aware of currents in popular music but not beholden to them. Why not throw in Yes next to or a few blocks away from Sturgill Simpson? Why not recognize the genius of both George Benson and St. Vincent? Why not dive into Brian Eno’s experimental work and place in next to the bold and brave sounds of Khruangbin? It’s a daunting task to keep track of it all and worry about genres or charts, so why not embrace them all? Strange Currency has been heard on KMUW’s FM stream since 2009. Our audience ranges from teens to retirees, from music fans to musicians themselves. Made possible through PRX (the Public Radio Exchange)
