Day 1 of KRCL's Stay-Home-A-Thon on RadioACTive, featuring Everyday People's Sue Robbins, Dr. Dave of #TheRadicalMiddle, Poetry in America, Equality Utah, Moudi Sbeity, and a music challenge from Acoustic Music's Megan Peters.

It should be Radiothon, but ... coronavirus. Just like everyone else, KRCL is adapting and bringing you a Stay-Home-A-Thon. If you're enjoying the soundtrack that is Listeners' Community Radio of Utah while you stay home to help flatten the curve, click to donate and pick up one of our cool new T-shirts. Each donation will result in a pay-it-forward donation to the Utah Food Bank.
