I helped save KPLU (now alive and well as independent KNKX) under similar circumstances. This shit actually can happen.

We've done it before, we can do it again. But y'gotta BOOOOST

And, y'know, donations. The money thing. It matters. Like it does.

@moira Had forgotten that Dave unretired himself and is apparently still on the air.
