Dead to the World – January 28, 2026
Music by the Grateful Dead, and music not by the Grateful Dead. Hosted by Tim Lynch.

8:00 PM Pacific Time: Wednesdays
Dead to the World features the music of the Grateful Dead and the wide world of musics that inspired the Dead — folk, jazz, blues, rock, country, noise, and more — and the musicians who were inspired by the Dead. Live performances from the KPFA Studio are featured as often as possible, and host Tim Lynch — like emeritus host David Gans before him — enjoys interviewing creative people as well as sharing their works.
