I've made a show for @freeformportland.org's Fundraiser which airs today 2-4pm. Listen in Portland at 90.3+98.3fm & online everywhere at freeformportland.org. Maybe you'll be encouraged to support the station's experiment in all-music all-volunteer community radio. Cuz I do.
A graphic that reads "Airwaves For All - Donate Today - Freeform Portland. 90.3+98.3fm freeform portland dot org." There's also a little frog with a sign that says "free form pdx" & the words in the purple background read "from jazz to jungle, roots to reggae, hip hop to reggae, death metal to yacht rock, freeform portland's airwaves are for all."
