Spring brings with it fresh beginnings, and KBCS is thrilled to introduce a new series of educational and cultural programs that were chosen to inform, educate, and offer a more structured forum for a debate of the prominent issues and topics of the day.

On Mondays at noon, tune in to KBCS for Philosophy Talk, a program that challenges listeners to identify and question their assumptions and to think about things in new ways.

On Tuesday, listen to the largest and oldest public affairs forum in America, The Commonwealth Club of California, where for over 90 years, distinguished speakers have shared their experiences and ideas in a nonpartisan forum that strives to bring more balanced viewpoints and a serious commitment to “stick to the facts.”

Wednesday at noon, KBCS features the City Arts & Lectures Series, which features leading figures in the world of arts and ideas in literature, criticism, science, and the performing arts.

On Thursday, KBCS presents Open to Debate. This new program seeks to restore balance to the public square through expert moderation, good-faith arguments, and reasoned analysis on topics of science, technology, politics, culture, and global affairs.

Finally, KBCS rounds out the week with a cultural program offering that features one of our region’s favorite sons, Rick Steves, who is also one of public broadcasting’s favorite personalities, with his weekly radio series Travel with Rick Steves. This program features great conversations with special guests and travel experts. Check it out on KBCS each weekday – also at noon.
