Something's Happening A Hour 1 honoring Roy Of Hollywood

Somethings Happening is KPFK's long-running overnight program midnight to 6:00 AM Tuesday-Friday with segments of holistic health, meditation, psychology, philosophy, political economy, science fiction and fact, old radio and more, created and long curated by the late Roy of Hollywood, Roy Tuckman. KPFK has been maintaining it since he passed in his honor and memory and in the framework and format he developed and evolved over the decades, which continues to evolve.

Monday overnight to Tuesday features political economy, including Le Show, with Harry Shearer now on at midnight with real-life absurdities from the headlines. Equal Rights and Justice from WBAI also airs at 3:00 AM in that early morning.

Wednesday overnight to Thursday features an anti-fascist focus, with programming from David Emory's "For the Record," the Grayzone Radio from Max Blumenthal and Aaron Mate', also developed for radio on KPFK's initiative, Final Straw Radio from young anti-authoritarians from the Pacifica affiliates unit, and Out-FM from sister station WBAI in New York.

Thursday overnight to Friday focuses on philosophy, psychology and consciousness/enlightenment, with Alan Watts,  The Magical Mystery Tour with Tonio Epstein from the Pacifica affiliates unit, an old radio break with drama, mystery, science fiction and comedy, and at 3:00 AM, Caroline Casey, the Visionary Activist from sister station KPFA in Berkeley, a long-running feature on Something's Happening.
