Report to the Listeners

By Richard S. Towne, KUNM General Manager

KUNM listeners and all of us working together at KUNM have lost a radio programmer of gigantic and complex proportions. Barry Lauesen from the Home of Happy Feet died last month at the age of 73. Barry, along with Karl Stalnaker, had been on KUNM since 1973, broadcasting a fantastic variety of music across more than 2,000 Tuesday nights.

Not long after 1973, Barry’s second wife Marilyn Altenbach joined the Home of Happy Feet. The radio broadcasts featured legions of local and touring musicians and has been supported by dozens of talented KUNM volunteers filling-in when the hosts took time off.

Barry.jpgIf you’ve known the Home of Happy Feet over the years, you already understand how important Barry’s presence was. If you never heard Barry on the Home of Happy Feet, I must confess that I could not fully explain that to you in writing. Not even the great journalist and musicologist Clark Kent could explain Barry’s supernatural powers. Suffice it to say that the Home of Happy Feet broadcasts are delightful, surprising, vast; sometimes a romp, sometimes a thrill ride, sometimes a slow waltz.

Our hearts go out to Karl and Barry’s extended family. They put together a loving retrospective that was published in the Albuquerque Journal on August 19th. We join you in keeping fond memories of what Barry Lauesen gave to us all.

There was an afternoon back on New Year’s Day in 2004 when I opened up the Albuquerque Tribune to a giant, full-color photo of Barry and Karl in KUNM’s control room. The Tribune writers had created an A to Z list of resolutions called “Discovering Duke City - Resolved: This is the year to uncover all of Albuquerque’s charms”. So “A” was about Acoma, “B” about the Bosque, “X” was Xeriscape, “Z” was for Zuzax”; you get the idea.

The feature ran across four pages - really big. I frantically thought that “H” would be for Home of Happy Feet so I flipped through to Page A4 and the letter “H”. Nutso! “H” was for Highland High School. Befuddled yet curious, I continued scanning - past “I” (Irrigation ditches) and “J” (hooray for Jazz Joints) until I found that letter “K”. OH, there we are! “K” is for KUNM. We made the Tribune’s list of Albuquerque “charms” for the many programs we offer. But honestly, it’s that big color photo of Barry and Karl that says so much. I am not sure we would have made it without the Home of Happy Feet.

(The Albuquerque Tribune’s feature was compiled by writers Shea Andersen, Jen Barol, Phill Casaus, Jeff Commings, Joline Gutierrez Krueger, Iliana Limon, Dan Mayfield, Carrie Seidman, Dan Shingler, Tamara

Shope, Bill Slakey, Sue Vorenberg, M.J. Wilde and Frank Zoretich with photographers Michael J Gallegos, Craig Fritz, and Stacia Spragg. We still miss you.)

In other news: The industry news source Inside Radio reports that FEMA will conduct the next nationwide test of the Emergency Alert System on September 20 at 12:18 pm (MDT). “After conducting a first-ever national EAS test in 2011, this test will be the fourth dry run of an infrastructure designed to allow a President to speak to the country in case of a national emergency.

“FEMA will also conduct a simultaneous first-ever national test of the Wireless Emergency Alert or WEA. It will involve sending an 87-character test message to be displayed on mobile handsets. “THIS IS A TEST of the National Wireless Emergency Alert System. No action is needed.” My recommendation? Mark your calendars and remember, it’s only a TEST. We’ll see.

“Money is Just a Resource”

By Mary Oishi, Development Director

“Money is just a resource. It’s not about accumulating, it’s about keeping the flow going—from the community to the business to the employees and back into the community again.” I stopped sipping my matcha green tea latte when Daniel Lang, owner of Independent Vehicle Service (IVS), made that statement.

“The next generation of entrepreneurs really have a refreshing perspective,” I thought. But when I reflected on it, I remembered that his father underwrote KUNM for years when the business was called Independent Volvo Service. Daniel must have inherited his community-mindedness.

 F17volvowinner2.jpgAlthough he worked in his father’s shop when he was in high school, Daniel didn’t go right into working there afterward. His Dad wouldn’t let him. So he first went to University of Denver, then followed his high school girlfriend to Salt Lake City. He had job interviews scheduled all day long, and the last one was at 9 pm at a real estate firm. There, the top realtor saw him in the elevator and said, “What are you doing here at 9 o’clock at night?”

 “I’m here for a job interview. I had interviews scheduled all day long and this was the only time I had available.” The top salesman was so impressed, he convinced the broker to bring Daniel on, and mentored him in all aspects of real estate.

  He stayed there for almost a decade, until he was home visiting his family and his Dad announced that he was going to sell the business. Daniel wanted to buy it. And that’s what he did.

  He keeps IVS focused on training and, in his words, “making sure my guys are taken care of.” He believes that if ongoing training is neglected, quality suffers.

 IVS gets supplemental income by selling used oil which gets refined and sold again. (They don’t themselves buy used oil, but they feel good about recycling it). They also recycle metal. Sometimes he partners with vendors to pass their benefits on to the community rather than taking them for himself. For example, B. F. Goodrich offered him a complimentary set of tires. He talked them into making it a certificate for any size tires, and giving it to the Leukemia Foundation for a raffle drawing. “It requires a little bit of horse trading on my end, but I figure if we can partner with our vendors to do a little bit of good…”

Daniel has been doing a lot of good by donating a vehicle every year for KUNM’s past three Fall fundraisers. This September, it’s a 2017 Prius with less than 38,000 miles. Get in on that cycle of keeping the money flowing. Support your community-powered public radio station, and it comes back to you every day with news and culture in a unique combination that is rare to find anywhere these days. Plus you have approximately a 1 in 4000 chance that you will win the Prius—and it will come back to you many many many times over!

 Public Health Reporting Update

By Rashad Mahmood

 

This month KUNM welcomed two new student reporters, Madison Spratto and Bryce Dix. Madison will focus on public health reporting and Bryce on general assignments. We’re excited to see the stories they create this year.

small-home-community.jpgTiny homes are being praised around the country as an affordable solution to homelessness. Voters in Bernalillo County approved $2 million a year ago to launch a tiny home village project for people experiencing homelessness in the Albuquerque area. May Ortega reported on a series of public meetings about the project, where some residents expressed strong opposition.

Dozens of refugee families resettle in Albuquerque each year, and their children begin attending school here. In mid-August, Albuquerque Public Schools launched a program for newcomers, but Hannah Colton reports that immigrant advocates say it’s been planned poorly and will be hard to access.

Hannah also hosted an episode of Let’s Talk New Mexico looking at how schools and families cope with food allergies. Take a listen to find out what schools are doing, and for valuable tips on helping those around us with allergies.

Next month look for more stellar reporting from the Public Health New Mexico team. KUNM's Public Health New Mexico is funded by the W.K. Kellogg Foundation, the McCune Charitable Foundation, the Con Alma Health Foundation and KUNM listeners.

PEACE TALKS RADIO, the series on peacemaking and nonviolent conflict resolution
How do we find peace and how do we make peace last? It's easy to become cynical and lose hope when faced with conflicts that seem intractable and have lasted for so long. But there are people working on solutions, even reaching across divides that seemed insurmountable in the past. On this edition of Peace Talks Radio, we talk with Noga Harpaz, an Israeli, and Raed al-Hadar, a Palestinian, who are part of Combatants for Peace. The group is committed to nonviolence and was launched in 2006 by former combatants who believe the cycle of violence can only stop when Israelis and Palestinians join forces. Their work was the focus of the documentary "Disturbing the Peace." We also talk with Peter T. Coleman, a psychologist with the Teachers College at Columbia University and director of the Morton Deutsch International Center for Cooperation & Conflict Resolution. He and his team are studying peaceful societies in a quest to understand how peace is sustained, a very different approach from the typical strategy of studying peace processes after conflict. It's akin to medicine focused on promoting wellness, versus treating illness and pathology.  Megan Kamerick hosts. After broadcast, this program, and ALL the programs in the series dating back to 2002, can be heard at peacetalksradio.com
