Monday, Sept. 29: Playwright V, formerly Eve Ensler, is headed to SLC with her latest work, including a local youth choir backing up the cast. No Kings organizers in Logan and Utah County.

Oct. 3: Dear Everything, a musical uprising for the Earth | 7:30 PM (Doors 6:30 PM) @ The Union, 235 N 500 W, SLC. RadioACTive talks with V, formerly Eve Ensler, about her new work, inspired by youth activism in the climate crisis.
ABOUT: "Dear Everything follows a group of adults in a small town willing to sacrifice their forest for money, and the young people, led by Sophia, a teenage girl, whose determination to save the forest endows them with powers they never knew they had. It is a story that shows us what can happen when people break free from their individual mindsets to embrace collective action. Dear Everything explores how young people are navigating the climate crisis and facing the prospect of a future they are being told may not exist.

Oct. 18: No Kings Protest in Utah and across the USA. Activists have registered rallies in 10 cities across Utah. RadioACTive talks with Jim Evans of We The People Cache Valley in Logan and Riley Cooper of Cedar City about events they are organizing in their communities.
As part of our coverage of Hispanic Heritage Month, RadioACTive Pop asks Rico Brand founder Jorge Fiero about the origin of his chile con crema. Wouldn't you know, his mother was involved. In fact, it sold better than his beans back in the early days at the Downtown Farmers Market. And that's where he'll be the next four Saturdays in a row if you'd like some tamales, burritos, salsa, guacamole, or roasted corn and poblano dip. Rico Brand is always midblock on the 300 South side of Pioneer Park. Or you can find his products in stores such as Harmons, Maceys and Whole Foods.
