3 cents with Sam Petri: Jackson, WY Journalist and KHOL Audio Ambassador

.01: How has the birth of KHOL community radio altered the musical experience in Jackson Hole?

When I get up in the morning, I turn on the radio and make some green tea. Typically, it’s my friends, or someone I know on the air, bouncing killer music off the valley walls. This is a HUGE improvement from the pre-KHOL days. It makes life a lot better. You don’t even need to think about what you might want to listen to … you just turn on the radio and … it’s good!
