"Listeners' Community Radio of Utah - KRCL has been spinning since December 3, 1979, and continues to bring together music lovers from near and far, connecting this beautifully diverse community. Celebrate 45 years of community radio with a night of live music, special drinks, signature beers, food trucks, a photo booth, and birthday cupcakes for all! Start the evening with a 'History of KRCL' panel discussion at 6pm. Music starts at 7pm with an all-vinyl set from DJ Rockin’ Robin. And groove to live music from some Utah favorites: shimmery psych rockers The Mellons, Dead-inspired jam band The Pranksters, and close out the evening with Talia Keys and the Love performing a rare full-band show. All proceeds benefit KRCL, keeping independent media accessible to all."

Tomorrow afternoon, the Government Operations Interim Committee is holding a hearing on a bill that would make it so election officers must receive ballots before polls close on election day and would require ballot boxes to be located no more than a 60-minute drive from 95% of registered voters in the election officer's jurisdiction. RadioACTive talks with Nat Williams, Democracy Policy Associate at Stewardship Utah, about proposed election reforms.
