People have the power. Our parent station, WYSO, is on the verge of independence and, on this Spring pledge drive, we need your help more than ever. With that in mind, our theme tonight is “FIRST PERSON PLURAL”- songs about “we” and “us”. So tune in and, if you please, join the WYSO family with a little monetary affection. We’ll certainly be glad you did, and so will you.
