@kcur893 Kansas City’s morning talk show Up To Date is back live on air again, from a small makeshift basement studio. But host Steve Kraske says his team is making it work. Ever since KCUR had to suddenly vacate our offices on the UMKC campuses, with no workspace to go to, staff have been scattered around the Kansas City metro. That meant, for several weeks, Up To Date was unable to broadcast live. Now, they’re back — albeit crammed in the basement of a Troost Avenue building. As Steve puts it, the new space doesn’t have all the bells and whistles that his team are used to (he misses being able to take listener call-ins) and most of KCUR’s staff can’t even fit. Still, Steve’s team is embracing their “pirate radio” work style, and making the best out of a strange situation. 🎤 Hosted by Steve Kraske 🎬 Filmed and produced by Zach Perez 💻 Edited by Gabe Rosenberg #kansascity #pirateradio #talkshow ♬ original sound - KCUR - Kansas City
