New Program Schedule Begins

By Michael Bryant | Published January 23rd, 2012

The Maya were right. The culture that invented drainage systems, numeric calendars and perfected chocolate are getting a lot of attention these days for their 2012 predictions (or lack thereof). One thing they nailed for sure – a great new program schedule on KZSC. How they knew is still a mystery; what you’ll find on The Great 88 does not. To find out more about the changes in our programming, check out our Schedule/Playlist page. We hope you enjoy it as much as they did.
