The best part about KFAI is that anyone can get a show playing anything or talking about anything. Unlike big corporate radio stations, which would technically be in violation of FCC rules regarding radio stations if it weren't for the fact that they make so much money (and we all know that anyone with money in this country is above the law), KFAI actually does a service for the people by being the voice of the people as they want it. At one moment you might be able to tune in and hear a jazz show. Tuning in an hour later you might hear the on-air personalities speaking in a foreign tongue. And an hour after that you might be able to hear some hard core punk. Such is it on KFAI.

My personal favorite show - and the only one I make a point of listening to every week - is The Root of All Evil, which is on from 1-6 am on Sunday mornings. There's something about 5 hours of death metal in the middle of a weekend night that I find entirely appealing. Whether I've come home from a night of drinking and need to sober up or if I've spent the night in watching tv, The Root of All Evil is always there for me, just as they have been for over 15 years now. Ahhhh....
