Going green with
less greenery
Doing our small part to
decrease water consumption
and beautify our immediate
surroundings at the same time,
KRCB has re-landscaped the
area across the front of our
studios. We began by eliminat-
ing the high-maintenance lawn
and covering those areas with
a layer of cardboard (shown in
the upper photo), to discourage
ant persistent sprouts from
attempting a comeback.
Existing trees and shrubs
were pruned and shaped and
augmented with selected new
drought-tolerant plantings, and
then surrounded with a healthy
layer of composted mulch (spe-
cial thanks to Sonoma Com-
post for that). The final result
is now in place to welcome
visitors to our Rohnert Park
home base, and continues to
be maintained by regular visits
from the landscape crew from
Becoming Independent.

KRCB’s 25th Anniversary Party
A quarter century is ample reason for a party,
so KRCB was pleased to host a 25h anniversary
celebration a few weeks back. Former employ-
ees, board members past and present, long-time
supporters, volunteers, and local elected officials
joined current staff savored the spread from
Pearson and Co. and mingled happily at Paradise
Ridge Winery well past the gorgeous sunset.

Dear Member,

As KRCB, like every other non-profit and for profit business, searches for the right,
successful, and appropriate way through this recession, it seems like a good idea to let
you know what we are and are not doing to meet the challenge.
What is perhaps the most important to convey is that we continue to move forward
in our understanding and harnessing of the promise and potential of the convergence of
our four delivery platforms—radio, television, web, and community engagement. All of
public broadcasting is engaged in this same search: how do we use the new and the old
tools together to successfully serve our community. Adding new widgets and gadgets in
and of themselves is not community service, any more than the latest social networking
tool is.We will continue to explore these tools to identify which will
help us deliver new and richer community service to you.
And we will use those electronic tools to make your membership
participation in KRCB easier. Renewals and newsletters by e-mail
can become the norm, if you choose. And, while we do need to
institute a day a month furlough for all staff members, we are
structuring it so that it should not interfere with your service.
What we are not changing is the core public broadcasting
television and radio service; the service which you have
supported with your membership. You make it happen!

Nancy Dobbs
President and CEO

KRCB honors our veterans
The Next Mission
Inspired by the very different stories of two Vietnam War
era vets, The Next Mission is a personal look at America’s
preparation—or lack thereof—for the almost two million
returning veterans of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Scott
Cameron was an 18-year-old enlistee in the U.S. Army in
1968. After coming under enemy fire while in a helicopter,
he was wounded and has never fully recovered either physi-
cally or mentally. The Veteran’s Administration classified him
as 100% disabled due to post-traumatic stress disorder. Will
Wilson, on the other hand, graduated from West Point in 1963 and served in Special Forces.
His best friend was killed in action but he returned from Vietnam unscathed physically, only
to realize that he suffered from post-traumatic stress. He eventually decided to return to
school, earning a Ph.D in psychology and specializing in military mental health. Cameron
and Wilson are both concerned that the military and civilian society are not prepared for the
men and women returning from combat. Sunday, November 1 at 11 pm

Tattooed Under Fire

Tattooed Under Fire is a unique, intimate, character-
driven portrait of Iraq-bound and returning US
soldiers as they go under the tattoo needle: openly
professing their pride, sharing their secrets and
confessing their fears. The tattoos cross lines of gender,
class, and political affinity revealing the inner lives of
young men and women as they live through the hor-
rors of the Iraq war. Tuesday, November 10 at 9 pm

National Veterans Creative Arts Festival

Veterans from across America perform in a live stage show at the National Veterans
Creative Arts Festival from Riverside, California. The variety show features vocal and
instrumental music, choral selections, and dance and drama acts performed by veterans who
are receiving or have received treatment at Veterans Affairs medical facilities nationwide.

Love Me Tender: The Love Songs of Elvis

A major reason for Elvis Presley’s massive, unprec-
edented appeal to women audiences of all ages was
his love songs. Always a true romantic, Elvis recorded
many, many love songs throughout his career, begin-
ning with “I Want You I Need You I Love You” in
1956 and running the entire span of his life. Love Me
Tender: The Love Songs of Elvis tells the warm story of
the tender side of the King of Rock and Roll.

David Downes and the six women who comprise Celtic
Woman.

Student to Citizen Film Series
Generation M: Misogyny In Media & Culture
Despite the achievements of the women’s movement
over the past four decades, misogyny remains a persistent
force in American culture. In this important documen-
tary, Thomas Keith, professor of philosophy at California
State University-Long Beach, looks specifically at misog-
yny and sexism in mainstream American media, explor-
ing how negative definitions of femininity and hateful
attitudes toward women get constructed and perpetuated
at the very heart of our popular culture.
The film tracks the destructive dynamics of misogyny across a broad and disturbing range
of media phenomena: including the hyper-sexualization of commercial products aimed
at girls, the explosion of violence in video games aimed at boys, the near-hysterical sexist
rants of hip-hop artists and talk radio shock jocks, and the harsh, patronizing caricatures of
femininity and feminism that reverberate throughout the mainstream of American popular
culture.
Along the way, Generation M forces us to confront the dangerous real-life consequences of
misogyny in all its forms—making a compelling case that when we devalue more than half
the population based on gender, we harm boys and men as well as women and girls. Featur-
ing interviews with gender violence prevention educators Byron Hurt, Jackson Katz, and
Jean Kilbourne. Tuesday, November 10 at 10 pm *Mature Content

Marilyn Horne’s Diamond Anniversary Gala

For nearly five decades, the great American mezzo-
soprano Marilyn Horne won the hearts of opera audi-
ences around the world for breathtaking achievements in
bel canto singing, whose composers and masterworks she
helped restore to the repertory. But her own deepest passion
was for recital singing—and to this day through the
Marilyn Horne Foundation, she champions the unique
artistry of recital singing.
Earlier this year at Carnegie Hall, Horne celebrated her
75th birthday in a star-studded evening that also marked
the 15th anniversary of the foundation that bears her name.
Join KRCB for this gala concert broadcast with
Performance Today host Fred Child and Metropolitan Opera broadcast host, Margaret
Juntwait—with performances
by some of the world’s greatest singers:
Susan Graham, Joyce Didonato,
Karita Mattila, Dolora Zajick, Thomas
Hampson, David Daniels, Thomas Quasthoff,

NPR examines the future of automobile transportation
Millions of Americans grew up riding in cars without seat
belts, air bags or anti-lock brakes. In 1969, the driving-
related fatality rate in this country was 5.0 deaths per 100
million vehicle miles of travel. Because of changes pushed
by safety advocates, today’s rate is about 1.2 deaths.
Still, more than 30,000 people will die in traffic accidents
this year. Roughly 600 will die over the Thanksgiving
holiday. What’s being done to make driving even safer?
All Thanksgiving week, NPR will present a series of
special reports on how new technologies, road designs and behavior-changing
campaigns can save lives. Among them are:
• New devices which help keep drivers from falling asleep at the wheel
• Built-in breath-testing devices that can immobilize cars
• Warning systems that can reduce collisions
• Advanced guard rails that can withstand impacts without launching vehicles.
Additionally, these reports, which will be featured on both Morning Edition and All Things
Considered, will examine some complex policy issues and social consideration around driving:
• Can engineers come up with something better than the cloverleaf intersection?
• Have changes in penalties and awareness really reduced drunken driving?
• The ongoing tension between fuel efficiency standards and safety
• Aging drivers are already a big problem in Florida. Are other states prepared for the
coming wave of Baby Boomers?
•The crumbling infrastructure (bridges, roads) and its impact on safety
Listen for this weeklong series of special transportation reports from National Public
Radio, beginning Monday, November 23.

The Last Year in the Life of the Beatles

Although their fans didn’t know it, the music The
Beatles were making in 1969 turned out to be the last
recordings they would ever make as a four-some. When
John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and
Ringo Starr gathered in the studio the day after New
Year’s that year, the last chapter of their remarkable jour-
ney began with the sometimes contentious Get Back / Let
It Be sessions. The band’s business affairs began to unravel
soon after and several members’ minds started drifting
toward getting off The Beatles’ merry-go-round. Still they managed to pull off one final
masterpiece, Abbey Road, before being photographed together for the last time in August
and formally closing the book on the Beatles early in 1970.
Award-winning producer Paul Ingles continues his documentation of The Beatles’ story
with The Last Year in the Life of The Beatles, a two-hour special that chronologically fol-
lows the band through 1969 as they record their final tracks, struggle with their company,
squabble with each other, pursue other interests, and ultimately split apart. Listeners will
hear behind the scenes studio chatter, rehearsal takes of songs, and finished classics, mixed
with informed commentary from a host of music writers, musicians and fans. Clips from
news events and other classic music from the tumultuous year that ended the 1960’s will also
be blended in. Thanksgiving 8-10 pm

A fiction trifecta on A Novel Idea
A Novel Idea celebrates a bounty of stories and writers with three
authors this month.
Occidental’s ever-astonishing Chester Aaron, has just been
awarded a 2009 Moonbeam Award in Young Adult Historical
Fiction for his recently re-published novel, Gideon, a story of the
Warsaw ghetto uprising and the uprising at the concentration
camp of Treblinka.
Stefanie Freele’s work has been called “micro fiction” for its
clarity and brevity. Sensitive and unruly, sincere and absurd,
Stefanie Freele’s Feeding Strays is a collection of fifty short stories
about children, family, relationships, and oysters. Freele is the
fiction editor of the Los Angeles Review and an editor of SmokeLong Quarterly .
Writer and photographer Beth Carpel’s “biker book” Assembling Georgia is the story of a
Minneapolis chicken-factory worker who begins receiving motorcycle parts through the mail.
Who is sending her the parts, why, and how it changes both their lives is at the heart
of this twisting tale full of humor and emotional depth.
All this on A Novel Idea, Wednesday, Nov. 11, at 7 pm.
Friedrich Hölderlin and Rebecca Foust on WordTemple
This month on WordTemple, The Selected Poems of Friedrich
Hölderlin, will be read and discussed by the translators, poets
Maxine Chernoff and Paul Hoover. Hölderlin (1770-1843) made
his mark with Greek-inspired odes, unorthodox (and always unfin-
ished) hymns to imagined gods and real European places, and elegies
on love—all written before 1807 when he suffered a mental break-
down. The Selected is a wonderful introduction and immersion into
the work of this “sublime visionary, great religious poet attracted to
pagan myth”—a poet of world-historical importance.
Also, Rebecca Foust talks with host Katherine Hastings and reads
from her first two award-winning collections, Dark Card; and Mom’s
Canoe. Dark Card focuses on the experience of raising a child with
Asperger’s Syndrome. The poems in Mom’s Canoe center on place —
the Allegheny Mountain Region.

Celebrating Family and Friends on Saint Paul Sunday
November 1 – Celin and Pepe Romero, guitars
The mastery and spirit of the late Spanish guitarist Celedonio Romero lives on in two
generations of guitar virtuosos. This week his sons Celin and Pepe return to the studio and
reveal how the Romero legacy comes alive with every performance. They’ll bring us music
of the illustrious Spanish tradition—guitar solos and duos of Albéniz, Granados, Falla, and
Torroba—as well as an enchanting prelude by Brazilian composer Hietor Villa-Lobos.
November 8 – OPUS ONE, Tsontakis, Martin, Brahms
When they’re not performing with either TASHI, or the
Guarneri and Orion string quartets, the accomplished soloists
of OPUS ONE join forces out of a warm mutual admiration
for each other’s artistry. In their most recent visit to Saint Paul
Sunday, violinist Ida Kavafian, violist Steven Tenenbom, cel-
list Peter Wiley, and pianist Anne-Marie McDermott offer us
some of the most spirited piano quartets in the repertoire—
works of Mozart, Brahms, and Martin—side by side with
arresting new music of another collaborator, composer
George Tsontakis. Anne-Marie McDermott
November 15 – Claude Frank, piano
Celebrated pianist Claude Frank is a living link to the great Romantics whose music he has
enlivened for over half a century. This week he brings us works of two of them—Beethoven
and Schumann—along with a beloved sonata of Mozart. He concludes with Beethoven’s epic
Opus 110 sonata, a signature work for pianist and composer alike.
November 22 – Anonymous 4 with Darol Anger & Scott Nygaard
The four singers of Anonymous 4 depart from their a capella tradition and invite a few
friends into the studio with them as they bring an all-American program of ballads, shape-
note tunes, and folk hymns. Darol Anger accompanies on violin and mandolin, along with
guitarist Scott Nygaard. Your spirit will dance along.
November 29 – Divertimento
There is something delicate and satisfyingly spare about a violin, viola and cello moving
intricately around one another in a continuous and constant whirl of sound. The string trio
Divertimento joins Bill this week on Saint Paul Sunday. Violinist Soovin Kim, violist Michael
Tree and cellist Margo Tatgenhorst Drakos play little-known trios of Beethoven and Czech
composer Bohuslav Martin, and they’ll show us exactly how just three of a kind is some-
times…just enough.
Sundays at 11 am

Music about music on Flashback

This month, Flashback focuses on songs about music itself,
something that musicians tend to give considerable thought
to. Host Bruce Robinson has choraled sample songs from
such notables as the Beach Boys, Leonard Cohen, Bob
Marley and the Wailers, the Good Rats, Country Joe & the
Fish and more. It’s often joyful and celebratory—but not
always, as you can hear Tuesday, November 3 at 7 pm.

Recalling Mouthful’s First Year
And a Look Into the Future of “The Wine Country’s Most Delicious Hour”
By Michele Anna Jordan
Fourteen years ago, Robin Pressman, newly installed as
program director for KRCB-FM, called to ask me about
doing a radio show. It seemed like a perfect idea, given my
lifetime as a passionate lover of radio.
When I arrived at the station a couple of weeks later, on
November 2, 1995, to do the first show, Robin said, “We
need a name. Do you have one yet?” “All I’ve come up with
so far is Mouthful . . .,” I offered hesitantly. “Okay, Mouthful,
that’s it,” she replied. I walked into the tiny studio and an
engineer indicated that the microphone was on. “Welcome to
Mouthful,” I said for the very first time.
A year later, we added the Wine Country’s Most Delicious Hour to Mouthful and shortly after
our first anniversary, we moved from Thursdays at noon to Sunday evenings at 7.
Just a few months into our third year on the air, we received a James Beard Award nomi-
nation, not bad for a show with no budget and a staff of two volunteers. We now have four
James Beard Award nominations. And we hope there will be more to come.
As Mouthful enters its fifteenth year, it remains an all-volunteer endeavor. We are looking
forward to an improved local signal, greater internet presence and new features. Mouthful’s
Recipe of the Week will return, not on the air but posted on our Web page (www.krcb.org/
mouthful). Over the next few weeks, you will notice other additions and changes. We’ll have
wine reviews, food news, book reviews and essays as part of the show. Details about upcom-
ing shows are posted on Mouthful’s Facebook fan page, with links to make it easy to learn
more about the week’s guests, their books, their restaurants, their farms, their events and
their products.
It has taken longer than I expected when I wrote the first edition of A Cook’s Tour of Sonoma
in 1990 but, finally, the nation knows what those of us who live here have long understood,
that Sonoma County—call it the Redwood Empire, call it the Wine Country, call it home—
is one of the most blessed places on earth, with an unrivaled agricultural abundance and
natural beauty that inspires artists and artisans of every kind.

November Embers in the Loft

The weather may be turning cold, but The Choir Loft is heating up with wide-ranging
explorations of the vocal repertoire. Tune in every Sunday morning at 10 to warm your
hands and ears.
Nov. 1. 20th-century choral works. The late, great 20th century produced choral master-
pieces by Stravinsky, Schoenberg and many others. Hosted by Bob Worth.
Nov. 8. The non-Vivaldi seasons. Believe it or not, composers other than Vivaldi wrote
music to celebrate the four seasons. Haydn is but one example. Hosted by Dan Solter.
Nov. 15. A Celebration of Saint Cecilia. Music dedicated to the patron saint of musicians,
including the hymn by Benjamin Britten. Hosted by Jenny Bent.
Nov. 22. Vocal music by Steve Reich. One of America’s greatest living composers has
produced a dazzling array of vocal music during his long career. Hosted by Steve Osborn.
Nov. 29. Rest in Peace, Claudio. This date marks the 366th anniversary of the death of
Claudio Monteverdi. Tune in for a celebration of his life with a survey of his sacred choral
works. Hosted by Anthony Martin.

The Nerve – Music and the Human Experience
Music is found in every culture worldwide.
It’s our constant companion, from birth through child-
hood, love, marriage and death. It has a starring role on
every stage of the great human drama—whether we are at
war or at prayer, by ourselves or with others, happy or sad
—music is there. But does it really have a purpose? Where
does it come from? And why does it have such power
over our hearts and minds? The Nerve, a new series from
the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, set out to find
answers to these questions. Tuesdays at 7 pm in November
and December.

Nov. 10 – Wired for

Sound: Music and the Brain
Host Jowi Taylor takes you on an aural journey, from
the creation of sound at its source, through the air and
the outer ear to the cochlea, the spinal column, and the
cerebral cortex. On the way, you’ll hear about how and
why hearing evolved, and how the human ear is designed
to react to certain sounds. Why do we hear some sounds
as music, and other sounds as noise? Just what happens
when the human brain and music become dance partners?

Nov. 17 – In the Key of DNA: Music & Evolution

Why did music evolve in the first place? Darwin himself was puzzled by music. Observing
songbirds, he suggested music’s role was in sexual selection. Others believe music’s origins
may be found in the mother-infant interactions we call baby talk, while some theorize that
music developed in tandem with the social cohesion necessary to the survival of bands of
early humans, critical to them through its power to strengthen social bonds.

Nov. 24 – The Pipe, the Drum and the Thunder Run: Music & War
Military music is meant to stir the blood. The Israelites used trumpets to bring down the
walls of Jericho. The Scots went to war with bagpipes. And every army has a band. Music can
even be an instrument of torture, as when the U.S. Army uses music to “forcibly interrogate”
its prisoners.

 Make the Most of Your Gifts
As you consider your giving plans this fall, remember
that incentives for making charitable gifts continue to be
an important part of our nation’s tax laws. Gifts of cash
as well as stocks, bonds, mutual funds and other assets
continue to offer very attractive tax benefits, but only if
completed before the end of the year.

When you pause to plan your giving, consider the con-

sistently high quality of programs and services KRCB
provides to you and your family and how much the
greater community benefits as the result of thought-
ful gifts from people like you, the good friends of
KRCB.

Don’t miss the advantage of giving to KRCB in this tax year. A generous donation
right now will benefit you, your family and your community.

KRCB Volunteer of the Month: Linda Seabright

Three years ago, accountant Linda Seabright
went to bed one night and woke up the next
morning remembering her dream: She was
talking on the radio! The dream compelled her
to pick up the phone book and look for nearby
radio stations where she could volunteer. The
first one she called was KRCB, where Robin
Pressman answered the phone. Before long,
Linda was no longer dreaming; she was learning
the ropes of radio announcing.
Now, after many months of guest hosting and
filling in as needed, Linda has a show of her
own, one that features Americana, roots, blues, jazz and southern soul music. It’s called
On the Road Again, reflecting the fact that Linda herself is on the road a lot. She visits
New Orleans several times a year, and recently produced a special show for Radio 91
listeners on the anniversary date of Hurricane Katrina featuring New Orleans’ musicians
talking about the healing power of music. When Northern California was having its own
high-impact storm a couple of years ago, Linda braved the winds and rising waters from
Marin County to Rohnert Park just so KRCB would have a morning announcer. She
was the only person here that morning.
You can hear Linda’s On the Road Again every other Thursday night at 8 pm alternat-
ing with the Freight Train Boogie with Bill Frater on the other Thursday nights. To learn
more about Linda, New Orleans, and the music she loves, go to lindaseabright.com

Walter Whitman Jr. may have

streets that day, he knew
something of himself they
could not imagine. With his
book of a dozen poems,
Leaves of Grass, he was about
to introduce America to a sav-

the horizon and Walt Whitman
offered up his poetry and his
