They are mostly listener supported, so if you listen in, be sure to contribute during their pledge drives. My favorite thing about this station is the Texas Matters show. It's syndicated across all the National Public Radio stations in Texas. It's about all things going on in the Lone Star State. I've been to other states, and have never heard a state specific public radio show for any other state. During pledge drive week, I tend to tune my radio to another station, because I get tired of listening to them beg for money. It's nice that they've changed the format recently. They've been cutting off the pledge drive short if they have raised the amount of money needed. It's nice how KERA changes up the programming on a really regular basis. Each show is at maximum, about an hour long. They don't play any regular commercials, more like Public Service Announcements. Check it out- it's on the left side of the dial!

The DJs are complete classical music nerds- they know everything about all there is to know classical. I like the fact that although they're a classical radio station, they still rock out the contests and concerts! They hold the annual Beethoven Festival and give out tickets to the Dallas Symphony Orchestra. I've even won a few times! WRR is the oldest radio station in Dallas, and probably all of Texas! Radio stations these days have four call letters, and start with the letter "K" to the west of the Mississippi River. Not WRR, they're old school. Classic. Where I'm from, the classical radio stations are all on the left side of the dial, without commercial interruptions, which is nice when you're jamming to a concerto. However, WRR being a for-profit radio station, they have to play ads regularly. Their studios are at the Texas State Fair Park, near downtown Dallas. Be sure to check them out and bang on the windows to let 'em know you're listening!
