NEW PROGRAMS ADDED TO THE KCCU SCHEDULE 

 

Lawton, OK—KCCU, Cameron University’s Public Media Service, adds new programs to its already award-winning public radio lineup.On the weekends, listeners can tune in to hear a variety of public radio favorites that tickle the tummy, satisfy musical appetites, and help them explore their world.

 

The NPR quiz show Wait Wait Don’t Tell Me moves to 10 a.m. Saturday mornings, followed by American Public Media’s award-winning show for people who love to eat, The Splendid Table at 11 a.m.   At Noon, KCCU patrons can tune in to hear a familiar show that also airs on Sundays, MarketPlace Money, and listeners can explore the world at 1 p.m. on Travel with Rick Steves.  Marian McPartland’s Piano Jazz joins the Saturday evening KCCU lineup, airing at its new time of 7 p.m.

 

On Sunday Afternoons from 3-5, KCCU patrons will be treated to a mixture of blues, folk, rock, country, and jazz music on American Routes, from American Public Media.  Celtic music lovers will still be able to get their fill of Irish folk music as Celtic Connections moves to Sunday evenings at 6.

 

Fans of Count Basie, Duke Ellington, Frank Sinatra and Ella Fitzgerald will enjoy Jazz with Bob Parlocha Friday and Saturday nights from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m. 

 

“KCCU is adding programs that listeners have told us they want to hear,” said KCCU General Manger Ted Riley.  “Programs like The Splendid Table and American Routes are widely popular across the country.  And even more exciting news for KCCU classical music patrons is the addition of three hours of local classical music hosted by Doug Cole Monday through Thursday afternoons from 1-4.”

 

KCCU is also adding an additional programming stream to its website.

Programs featured on KCCU’s HD-2 radio signal will now also be broadcast on the KCCU website, allowing KCCU patrons who do not yet own HD Radios to have access to programs like NPR’s Talk of the Nation, and American Public Media’s music review show Sound Opinions.
