KVPR and the Maddy Institute are partnering to bring the Valley’s premiere public affairs show to KVPR’s airwaves.
The Institute’s Maddy Report features conversations with policymakers, community leaders, and professionals on public policy issues impacting Valley communities. Listeners can expect insightful conversations that provide trusted information on local and state issues, often with the changemakers themselves.
“Both KVPR and The Maddy Institute work every day to create a more informed public in the Central Valley region. We think this is a natural fit between our organizations, and is driven by our shared non-partisan, public-service missions,” said Joe Moore, general manager of KVPR. “We’re excited to bring The Maddy Report to our airwaves, stretching from Kern to Merced Counties.”

Now with a regular slot on the air, listeners will be able to regularly glean insights on California public policy with Zante through a uniquely Valley lens.
“We are excited to bring The Maddy Report to even more listeners across the Central Valley through KVPR,” said Zante. “For more than two decades, our program has provided meaningful conversations on the issues shaping our region. This latest iteration continues The Maddy Institute’s mission of inspiring public leadership through informed civic engagement.”…
