Dog Eared Reads, KPLA's own radio show, will air its final broadcast on Tuesday, February 13, 2018. You can hear this show for book lovers, at 9pm, on KODK 90.7; OR,  listen online any time through KMXTs website.
Hosted by KPLA board members, this ground-breaking show is captivating, but keeping up with new content and producing the show has proved to require more time to produce than available to our board members.
