"Under the Influence" Broadcast today on WPKN

UNDER THE INFLUENCE - The Highs and Lows of Drug and Alcohol Use in American Culture. Tune in to WPKN at 89.5 fm or wpkn.org for two days of fundraising and exploring this fascinating subject beginning this Thursday and Friday, Dec, 1st and 2nd at 7:00 am. Since the turn of the last century artists have been singing about, poking fun at and lamenting over the power of drugs and alcohol in our lives. Programming material includes a wide array of music, interviews with users and people in recovery and substance abuse treatment centers, additional commentary, etc. As always, music continues to reflect our personal, social, cultural and political history over time and within these two days WPKN takes an in depth look at a complex subject and brings our unique mix of music, commentary, personal stories and community resources to bear in a way that is entertaining, informative and uniquely WPKN. Please join us, support us and spread the word and tune in this Thursday and Friday for Under the Influence - The Highs and Lows of Drug and Alcohol Use in American Culture. I have another comment by a professional in the field that really sums up the effectiveness of the broadcast that I can forward you.

Thanks for Listening!!
