Now would be a great time to support KWMR! Help us meet our pledge drive goal and stay on the air!
April 15, 2014
Greetings!

The Pledge Drive started today and will end on Sunday the 20th. Not a lot of time to get your pledges in, but since folks generally wait until the last minute, this is the PERFECT Pledge Drive for procrastinators. It's already the last minute. 

Nate, Atticus, Amber and Mary with the Rise & Shine Show!!

The Rise and Shine show kicked things off this morning. Amber Distasi and Mary Siedman along with Atticus Siedman and his father Nate Siedman were "in the house." Raul Gallyot was flown in by hellicopter to participate. All of this is captured on the KWMR archives (in case you missed it!). Especially funny was Mary's long-time friend soliciting pledges from Pennsylvania. You will have to listen.

A big thank you to Tom Kent for hanging the banner in Point Reyes Station and for Grey Shepherd and the Stinson Beach Market for hosting the banner in Stinson Beach and to Smiley's Schooner Saloon and Mary Siedman for the banner in Bolinas!

Breaking news! Storeyteller and KWMR programmer Neshama Franklin WON the Moth Storytelling Grand-Slam!!!

Saturday, April 26
7:30 PM

Imagine a dinner party where every story spun across the table was kindling for the courses to come. Where a summer vacation to Sicily gets interesting in a hurry and plunges straight into a tantalizing al dente mystery in sauce and spice. 

Eat My {Heart} Out is a true storytelling dinner theater serving a unique menu of courses whose ingredients and plating are edible metaphors of the performers' stories. Founded by writer/producer Eugene Ashton-Gonzalez in New York, Eat My Heart Out is coming to West Marin for the first time to celebrate KWMR Community Radio and all the good folks who make it so rad.

The setting - the Peace Barn in Bolinas. The five storytellers include Maria Muldaur, Neshama Franklin, Glen David Gold, your host Eugene Ashton-Gonzalez, and KWMR's very own transmitter wrangler, Richard Dillman. 

THE MENU -

-First- 
Rabbit fazzoletti, turnip consumm�

-Second-
Bolinas flowers, strawberries, meyer lemon

-Third-
Green garlic souffl�

-Fourth-
Goat Rack Chops, Green Garlic souffl�, shaved brassica & bacon


-Fifth-
Chocolate cake with candied rose petals

This event is a benefit to support KWMR, West Marin Community Radio.
Chefs: Eve Love and David Cook


And Get this! The proceeds from this event will also be helping KWMR make the White Hot Burn and the Missing Monday Pledge Drive goal. 

 


Storytellers: 
Neshama Franklin
Neshama Franklin: Have you ever heard KWMR Programmer Neshama Franklin tell a story on the air? Well hearing her tell one in person is even more amazing. Neshama has won the Moth storytelling Grand-Slam. Hear her story at EMHO!

Richard Dillman
Richard Dillman
is no stranger to Round Up readers. He is KWMR's Transmitter Wrangler and host of Incredible Radio Tales on KWMR. He has stories. Oh my, does he have stories. This should be a good one. I heard it is inspiring some sort of ravioli....

Glen David Gold
Glen David Gold,
author and creator of the Paper Mill Tales series that was featured on KWMR in 2013. Glen wrote both Carter Beats the Devil and Sunnyside
. I know nothing of Glen's story and am looking forward to being surprised!

Maria Muldaur
Known more for singing and performing (Midnight at the Oasis is a great hit). The wonderfully talented
Maria Muldaur has a few stories of her own. In
Eugene Ashton-Gonzalez
fact, we heard that Maria is quite a storyteller, so we asked her to participate. 

There is one more storyteller and it is Eugene Ashton Gonzalez, the creator of Eat My Heart Out!
