Postcards from The Wind

Series produced by Fil Corbitt

Series image

A popular 2-minute weekly segment that easily drops into the broadcast clock.
Postcards are produced by Fil Corbitt (they/them), host of the podcast “The Wind”

A Postcard from The Wind is a quick glimpse into another world. The tone is thoughtful, fun, poetic and often include scene tape, ambient sound and/or music. They aim to fulfill one of public radio’s core tenants of inspiring curiosity.

The home station is KUNR in Reno, NV, and they air Thursdays during Morning Edition at 6:42:30 and 8:42:30am, and again on All Things Considered at 03:48:00pm
