Greetings ALL Earthlings! COMMUNITY RADIO IS IMPORTANT CKCU and This Island Earth represent the huge diversity of music and thoughts from everywhere. All cultures, languages, orientations, points of view. A genre lawless zone from all over the planet (and sometimes nearby star systems). NOT constrained by commercial big-biz or gov't interests. Music is a fundamentally important glue to bring people together, in these very troubled, divisive times. And radio, by its nature, goes everywhere, and cannot be stopped once it is in the air. So, if you love music, culture, community, or maybe just hate robo-zombie commercial media ... DO IT! Tap and donate right now people!

Just reflecting on Rob's comment above... We also deeply appreciate all our highly IRregular listeners. Diversity and quirkiness ... spice of life. ;^)
