Big News!

Jordan Kirtley / KMUW

Hey, podcast listeners—we’ve got some news! First, the slightly bad news, before the really good news: the bad news is, there won’t be a podcast this week. But that’s because of the good news, which is that You’re Saying It Wrong is now more than just a podcast!

Starting next week, the show is also an actual radio show, and it’ll be available to any public or community radio stations that want to air it through a platform called PRX. It’ll also come out on a weekly basis now, instead of every other week, so if you want more of us, you got it.

We’re really, really excited about this, and we hope you are, too, and if you want to hear us on the radio where you live, get ahold of your local public or community station and let them know where they can find us, again, that’ll be on PRX starting sometime next week. And if anyone has questions about airing the show, you or they can always contact me at powell@kmuw.org.

And of course we’ll continue as a podcast, it’ll just be weekly now, and also we’ll be releasing new episodes on Saturdays, starting January 27th. So, we’ll see you then. Yay! Onward! Excelsior! And more words like that.
