“Thin may be in, but Fats where it’s at!”

If you were around the S.F. Bay area in the late-70’s and knew anything about music, you heard of, and probably listened to, KFAT radio out of Gilroy, CA. And if you listen to the Jive, you may know we have TWO of the original air staff still on the air 50 years later…“Sister Tiny” and “Sully Roddy”. Both of them can be found in this SmugMug collage of pics around the KFAT studio of that era >HERE<.

Another member of the original KFAT airstaff, the gruff but lovable curmudgeon Uncle Sherman, was headed into the final tunnel for geezers and has turned around with the help of hospice folks and some loving care. He’s now active on his facebook page and asking to say Hi! to folks either in-person or via FB [https://www.facebook.com/search/top?q=sherman%20caughman].

His recent FB posts are predictably humorous. If you’ve ever loved his shows on KFAT & KPIG like we have, give him a shout and tell him the rascals over at Jive sent you!

Our own Diane ‘Di’ Michaels recently had nice chat with David Crosby on the release of his new album “For Free”. Since you won’t likely hear it (the interview or the album) anywhere else, here you go:

We decided one stream is not enough for two mighty radio wizards, so our DooFoo Team hooked up the KDAN stream, available on the KDAN link above. Mostly like KJIV, but more Dan and friends. Maybe for when that really annoying song just rubs you the wrong way on KJIV, you can escape to West Marin.

“Sully’s Jumpin’ Jive” airs Sats 2-4pm (reprises same time Weds)

We’re happy to announce a rare addition to our select team of Boss Jocks, longtime radio talent ‘Sully’ Roddy. You can read her back story HERE, and welcome her by email here: sully@jiveradio.org

Like all other Jive DJ shows, the current Jumpin’ Jive show is available on demand on her DJ page.

We love the folks at BirdNote, which airs daily at 8am. Find out more at birdnote.org
