About the Show
Welcome to “Voices of Adaptation”
Exploring Resilience, Change, and Community Through Street-Level Stories
In a world of constant change, how do we adapt? Voices of Adaptation is a unique radio station dedicated to capturing the pulse of real people navigating social change, the housing crisis, and the challenges of modern life. Through street interviews, council meeting recordings, and event coverage, we bring you raw, unfiltered stories that reveal the resilience, creativity, and struggles of individuals from all walks of life.
This is not just a station—it’s a platform for shared experiences and collective learning. You can participate by exploring our Books Section, where you’ll find interview notes to guide your own conversations. Whether you’re interviewing yourself, your parents, teachers, or others in your community, we invite you to share your recordings with us. Selected interviews will be broadcasted, amplifying voices from across the spectrum of society.
Tune in every Thursday from 1 PM to 3 PM Pacific Time (time frame subject to change) to hear the stories that shape our world. Together, let’s explore how people adapt, survive, and thrive amidst adversity.
