Cape May Locals Radio Program Updates

Time for a Cape May Locals radio program update. We are about to close out our first year of on-air and online programming. Originating from various locations around Cape May the Locals has entertained a vast array of guests and topics. The Locals is on WCFA-LP a program of the Center for Community Arts.

Beginning with Exit Zero’s Jack Wright, the first episode of the Cape May Locals Radio program, delved into politics and other heated issues as needed. The program  also features a What’s Cooke-ing segment, where I update listeners on popular upcoming events such as Movies on the Beach and concerts at Convention Hall and Rotary Park.

Our reach has been documented regularly in North East Pennsylvania and listeners from as far away as Nebraska in the mid-west have written in to compliment the program. Below are summaries of a few of the latest programs.

 

 

A recent show featured Susan Tischler and playwright Bill Sterritt talking about their fascinating new show opening July 10th at the Areodrome, a new venue in the area. The Wreck of the Spanish Armada is described: “a play rich with excellent dialogue steeped in nautical themes and uses vivid imagery” by Theasy.com.
Then we went running with Kashi Davis and Diane Stopyra and chatted about RunCape.net, their take on running tours through Cape May and Cape May Point.

Did you know jet’s like those seen in Top Gun are on display at Naval Air Station Wildwood?. This may have been our most Awe-inspiring broadcast yet. Talk to me Goose!!! Listen in on the Podcast.

    John – we are mutual social media followers. My family recently relocated our vacation home from the Villas down to Townbank. We’ve been in the area for about 6 years now and every weekend the drive back to central PA has gotten more and more difficult. I enjoy The Locals podcast as a way to get back to the shore over my lunch hour while going for a walk up here in PA. Helps me stay in tune for what all is going on and I really enjoy “getting to know” the folks that make the area so great. Whether the discussion is on a business, upcoming events, or just banter about what’s been going on, I learn something every episode.

    Eventually, Townbank will be our permanent home, but until then, we have our weekends and as many longer trips as possible. The Locals keeps me connected when we aren’t ‘down the shore’. Thanks for the great content, thanks to WCFA, and thanks to you and Ed (and all the other folks involved ;)). Keep up the great work!
