Our programming will consist of both locally produced and nationally syndicated programs. We are affiliating with Pacifica Radio, which offers Democracy Now! and many others. If you're interested in producing a local show, or in selecting nationally available content that would be appropriate to our area, please fill out our volunteer information form.
Coverage of the general 2010 election will include recordings of public forums and interviews with candidates. We hope these will be useful to the many who like to hear directly from current and potential officeholders, but are unable to attend these events. Coming soon will be a list of positions and candidates, indicating those we have been able to interview so far, and those who have declined to be interviewed.
This program presents recordings of candidate forum events for the 2010 primary elections in our area. Gallatin Community Radio volunteers are not be able to attend all events, but we will be happy to include in this program suitable recordings provided by forum sponsors or others.

There are many questions communities face that cannot be resolved with simple decisions, but require ongoing discussion, education, and action. This program is dedicated to providing information about such issues from presentations that might otherwise be lost, as well as collecting perspectives from people who are knowledgable about or affected by them.

Kate Gardner is a Bozeman gardener whose interest in organic gardening leads her to investigate wildly diverse subjects from soil science to sustainability to food justice. When not wrestling with bindweed and creeping bellflower in her garden plots, or wrestling with the botany and chemistry she wishes she'd learned decades back, she interviews scientists and practitioners, garden writers and professors--including a number of Gallatin Valley folks. She shares her findings, musings, and gardening tips on her blog, The Manic Gardener, and on her likewise named podcast at Web Talk Radio, now syndicated here.
