The Longwave Home is a home frequency in a fractured era — a refuge of story, sound, and human connection broadcasting from the foothills of Northern California.


Part radio album, part community chronicle, part late-night companion, each episode explores a single humanitarian theme and follows it wherever the signal leads: into music, into memory, into conversations with neighbors, into small acts of courage, into the long echo of history, and into the lives we’re all trying to make sense of.


Rooted in Gold Country, but resonating far beyond it, Longwave is built from the voices that live here — the farmers, artists, elders, fire survivors, dreamers, activists, wanderers, and working folk who give this place its pulse. It’s a listener-supported, commercial-free broadcast stitched together from interviews, performance, field recordings, narrative vignettes, archival scraps, and the kind of unexpected moments you can only catch when you’re listening closely.


This is not a podcast.


This is radio the old way — slow, deep, intentional — but made for right now.


It’s a sanctuary carved out of the static, a reminder that we’re still allowed to feel things in full color, and an invitation to sit with stories that might just sit with you in return.


Tune in. Settle in.

Let the signal find you.

    The Longwave Home
    Jul 21 2026

    A river floods. A town begins to rebuild.


    In the aftermath, the people of Free River reckon with loss, uncertainty, change, and the stubborn human tendency to carry on. Along the way, we hear from people rebuilding their lives after disaster, recovering from addiction, caring for loved ones, pursuing social change, and facing the ordinary hardships that come with being human.


    Some challenges are personal. Others belong to families, communities, and even nations. Some arrive without warning. Others unfold over years. Yet beneath them all is the same enduring question: What happens after the crisis passes?


    Through stories, conversations, music, and reflection, The Longwave Home explores the many ways people persist, adapt, rebuild, and continue forward.


    How do people keep going after life doesn’t go according to plan?

    What are we loyal to... and why?


    In Episode 6, The Company We Keep, The Flags We Fly, we spend some time thinking about loyalty; where it comes from, what it asks of us, and why it remains such a powerful force in human life.


    From the folks of Free River to the foothills beyond, this month’s transmission gathers stories, observations, questions, and a few surprises along the way.


    After all, loyalty has a way of revealing itself in the things we keep showing up for.

    The Longwave Home
    May 21 2026
    In Episode Five of The Longwave Home, we step right up to the one and only Faire of Fairness as it rolls into Free River for a strange and reflective evening examining one of humanity’s oldest and slipperiest questions: What is fairness, anyway?
    Through carnival tents, community voices, quiet confessions, and unsettling realizations, this transmission explores fairness in money, power, relationships, morality, health, luck, and the systems we build to make sense of them all. Along the way, listeners from across Nevada County weigh in with their own experiences, contradictions, and hard-earned truths.
    Some fairness can be shaped. Some may never be fully understood. And some may not exist at all.Fair enough?





    The Dedication:
    This episode is dedicated to our sons, Cassidy and Julian… both navigating unfair roads of their own right now… yet still carrying the family banner:Til Death, We Do Art.Keep yer dobber up, boys… we look forward to welcoming you home again soon.
