At KZSM.org, caring for our community forms the essence of our mission to educate, engage, enlighten, and entertain. Our broadcasts provide a whole range of information and opportunities to make life just a little easier for our listeners.
For the first months of the pandemic, we offered daily and then twice-weekly noon news hours, including the latest COVID-19 statistics and interviews with experts and officials such as San Marcos Mayor Jane Hughson, County Judge Ruben Becerra, and Dr. Lee Johansson, Chief Medical Officer at CHRISTUS Santa Rosa San Marcos. We also talked to business owners, teachers, clergy, and activists to create a complete picture of the community’s response to the crisis.
Sundays 11 a.m. to noon, “The Veterans Hour” provides resources for “those who serve, and those who serve those who serve." Hosts Dee Bartlett and Steve Jones research various groups to find out what they do, how they help, and what kind of reputation they have. “We help veterans and their families navigate those waters.”
