Emergency Pledge Drive

Turning Point for Community Radio

Federal cuts are gutting small, nonprofit public media—and Pirate Cat Radio is on the line. This emergency episode dives into how the loss of federal support threatens LPFM stations like KPCR 92.9FM and KRTR 101.9FM, and what that means for the future of community-powered radio on the Central Coast. Join hosts Tabitha Soren and Madline as they share what’s at stake, spotlight local voices, and call on listeners to step up. Join the Signal Society now at donate.kpcr.org to keep Pirate Cat Radio alive, independent, and on the air. Because once the signal’s gone—we don’t get it back.
