"The Detour" on KZUM

"The Detour" on KZUM Thursdays, 8:30-10:30 PM CT on: KZUM.org & 89.3 FM. It's all about the journey, not the destination.

A radio program featuring a wide variety of stuff throughout the recorded history of music. It's called The Detour because I'm all over the musical map, and because the best sights and sounds are usually found away from the main highway.
