Programming updates!

WUTC is excited to announce that changes are coming to our program schedule!

Beginning in March, we’re adding new local programs and adjusting our schedule to offer longer blocks of music and talk throughout the week. These changes will provide a more consistent listening experience for both types of programming.

Our NPR programs and WUTC's flagship shows, like The Richard Winham Show and Scenic Roots, will remain in their regular time slots. However, The Haley Solomon Show will be moving to weekdays from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. Some other shows are shifting as well, all in an effort to create a more consistent listening experience.

We’re excited to add 16 hours of locally produced shows to our airwaves!

WUTC is proud to be the Tennessee Valley’s public radio station, and when we began discussing potential program additions, we knew exactly where to look. Here are a few new shows we can share with you now: Grateful Dead Mondays with Chants In The Void, Scenic Sounds with Alex Volz, Night Drive with Sara Mirucki, and the triumphant return of the popular Please Be Quiet Please with Josh and Jeremy Pickard.

We can't wait to share the full schedule with you. More announcements coming soon!
