HPPR visits KOOP in Austin! (Thanks, Pearl!)

High Plains Public Radio | By Jenny Inzerillo

Published March 16, 2018 at 2:55 PM CDT

Today, the worlds of community radio and public radio collided in Texas. After years of streaming Pearl's General Store online (and years of prodding by mutual friends and colleagues that we should meet in person), I was finally able to stop by KOOP, the coolest community radio station in Austin, Texas (91.7 FM) to crash Pearl's show and share some favorite artists from SXSW music festival, Luck Reunion, and my new music bin. Thank you for having me, Pearl and everyone in the KOOP family!
