has a little extra time on his hands, and he plans to make use of it by taking on a weekly radio program at a Los Angeles radio station., a public radio outlet based out of Cal State Northridge that is the sole “adult alternative”-formatted station in the region, with the hour-long “Joe Walsh Old-Fashioned Rock n’ Roll Radio Show.”
It’s no longer unusual for classic rock stars to host their own radio programs, but nearly all of them have done it for satellite radio, which makes Walsh’s choice of a platform fairly novel. KCSN — better known among many listeners by its number on the dial, 88.5 FM — comes closer to sounding like commercial radio than most public radio stations but has a more free-range playlist than its local rock counterparts.
“This public radio station serves the community I live in and is funded by listeners,” Walsh said in a statement. “I like that men with ties don’t decide what I listen to. My show will be a mixture of music I love, music I think people will want to hear and stories behind some of these songs that I’m pretty sure no one knows about. Hopefully, the show will generate some more listeners and support for the station, and we will have a lot of fun in the process.
Osburn added that “it’s flattering to have rock legends listening and financially supporting the station.” Director of membership Laura Kelly said that Walsh “has always been there for us during membership drives.” During an April pledge drive, Walsh vowed to match donations made that day. Fans of Walsh won’t have to check into the Hotel California to hear him. The station’s live programming is available on an 88.5 app and on the web at
