Sorry to not comment on the above program; So far that I’ve found KPFA is the best station. Even beats Radio HAbana. But I haven’t been able to enter oldKPFA. Old KPFA is so much better than the new website. The black background does not help in finding archived programs. Being an on line listener in the eastern time zone I¨m 3 hours ahead of Sanfransisco so I’m always turning to the archives for the programs I want to hear. I suppose the new web site is an attempt to attract a younger constituency but I’ve been a happy contributer since I found KPFA and doubly so with the astounding gifts that come with contributing. But the difficulty with the new web site puts a kink in my relations with KPFA. I certainly hope you will find it your heart to bring back oldKPFA. Thanks – Okitaris
