Listeners, we are experimenting! While KZMU News aims to bring a reporter on board over the next few weeks, we’re shaking a few things up. On Fridays the Weekly News Reel will air solo for the moment. Thanks so much for sticking with us as we bring our news department back to full capacity and keep it sustainable.

// Alright, let’s get into the News Reel! Sophia Fisher of The Times-Independent discusses the Winter Rescue Team, the new solid waste manager, an update on new legislation from Rep. Phil Lyman, and the passing of Moab’s oldest resident. Alison Harford of the Moab Sun News talks passenger reductions for SkyWest’s service, rising food insecurity this winter, and a gallery opening for Moab’s youngest artists. Plus, the Sun’s Maggie McGuire tells us ‘what happened’ at this week’s Grand County Commission meeting.
