For over 30 years "The Tenth Voice" has been providing LGBTQ-friendly radio shows for the queer community.

KKFI radio show remains one of the notable voices for Kansas City's queer community.

With a rotating lineup of hosts each week, The Tenth Voice is dedicated to creating a "weekly broadcast created by and for LGBTQIA people throughout the metro region." Covering a wide array of topics including music, politics, and pop culture, "The Tenth Voice" showcases a diverse array of experiences from the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and allied communities.

When I host Up To Date each morning at 9, my aim is to engage the community in conversations about the Kansas City area’s challenges, hopes and opportunities. I try to ask the questions that listeners want answered about the day’s most pressing issues and provide a place for residents to engage directly with newsmakers.
