Dear friends,
This week, KLRN's lineup of programs offer something for everyone to enjoy.
Wednesday at 7PM, traverse the enchanting landscape of the Emerald Isle on PBS Nature's Wild Ireland: Kingdom of Stone. Friday at 8PM, watch Tony Award-winner Leslie Odom Jr. on Great Performances: Purlie Victorious, the acclaimed Broadway comedy that tells the story of a Black preacher’s scheme to reclaim his inheritance and win back his church from a plantation owner. Saturday at 6PM, don't miss a dive into the history of Kensington Palace - where Princess Diana debuted the infamous "Revenge Dress" - on the season finale of Secrets of the Royal Palace. Then, beginning at 8PM, be sure to catch the two-part Season 2 Premiere of Midsomer Murders. On Sunday at 7PM, we honor those who lost their lives defending our nation with the 2024 National Memorial Day Concert.

Last week, On The Record host Randy Beamer sat down with the president of the San Antonio Professional Firefighters Union to discuss the ongoing contract negotiations with the city and why talks have stalled, and what firefighters want. We also hear a proposal from SAWS that would require customers who use large amounts of water to cut back first when restrictions take effect. And, on Reporter's Roundtable, we discuss former Councilman Clayton Perry’s potential run for Mayor.
Keep a pulse on the important issues impacting our city: watch On The Record, Thursdays at 7PM, Saturdays at 5:30PM, and Sundays at 1PM on-air and online.
