KSJD Cortez CO

August 15, 2023 – ON THE ROAD AGAIN! Visiting Cortez/Mesa Verde. In my travels and life, people often tell me they don’t listen to radio because there are too many commercials and playlists are too limited. Unfortunately, these very people don’t turn to the plethora of non-profit non-commercial radio stations in our state.

The Colorado Playlist is fortunate to be aired throughout the state on a network of non commercial community based public radio stations. For the time being, it is not being aired on KSDJ Cortez – while they look for a new time slot to air it. IN the meantime, check the stations and times page for where and when you can hear it.

Dragondeer debuts in the TOP 5 and Daniel Rodriguez re-enters the TOP 5 below.
