Chuckanut Radio Hour with Special Guests William Dietrich, Christian Martin & Craig Romano, North Cascades: Finding Beauty & Renewal in the Wild Nearby
Our special guests this month are authors William Dietrich, Christian Martin and Craig Romano for a new book about the North Cascades. Pulitzer-winning essayist Dietrich presents the ecology, geology, and cultural history of the North Cascades. Christian Martin, of North Cascades Institute, profiles scientists, recreationists, educators, and others who live, work, and play on the land. Guidebook author Craig Romano highlights a selection of the region's many recreational opportunities, including hiking, skiing, and paddling. The book is illustrated with stunning photographs by more than twenty conservation photographers, and it brings this region into focus, highlighting its beauties and its fragility.
The Chuckanut Radio Hour, a recipient of Bellingham's prestigious Mayor's Arts Award, is a radio variety show that began in January 2007. Each Chuckanut Radio Hour features a guest author and includes guest musicians, performance poet Kevin Murphy, Cascadia Weekly columnist Alan Rhodes, an episode of "The Bellingham Bean" serial radio comedy, and some groaner jokes by hosts Chuck & Dee Robinson and announcer Rich Donnelly. The Chuckanut Radio Hour's first guest was Erik Larson and has since included Alexander McCall Smith, Elizabeth George, Cheryl Strayed, Sherman Alexie, Tom Robbins and Garrison Keillor, among many others. The Radio Hour airs every Saturday evening at 6pm and Sunday at 9pm on SPARK RADIO, KMRE 102.3FM.
