Radiothon 2023: It's Never Too Late To Donate!

It's Never Too Late To Donate!Radiothon, the one week of the year that we ask for your financial donations (click here) has officially ended. If you’ve already contributed this year, we THANK YOU!... And if you haven’t yet, we encourage you to support our community station because it's never too late to make a tax-deductible financial contribution to our non-commercial, educational station.

We Are Not Alone Monday, April 3, 2023. 2 – 3 PM EST.

Our guest today is Mr. Steve Aspin. His new book, “Out of Time”, is Steve’s first book on the subject of UFO and abduction research. Following a lifetime of what are often described as ‘anomalous experiences’, his serious interest in this complex subject began in 2007 when he realized that the phenomenon was not only real but was happening to him and had been all his life. Join the conversation at 2PM only on WHFR.FM

We Are Not Alone - Monday, March 6, 2023. 2 – 3 PM EST.

Our guest today is T.J. Ryan. T.J. is the host of the podcast “Out There”, where he interviews psychics, mediums, UFO witnesses and all things paranormal. He has had UAP sightings since childhood but, more recently, in May of 2022, T.J. had another kind of sighting that raised my interest: he witnessed a passenger plane that appeared to be frozen in midair at a comparatively close proximity. Optical illusion? Perhaps. But that wouldn’t answer the question as to why there was no sound associated with the event or why so many others have had similar experiences around the world.
