Savannah’s locally owned and operated community radio station wants to talk to you and your friends. You pick the time and place (and friends). We’ll supply some of our star hosts and staff.
WRUU’s Starburst Program reaches out for your ideas on radio, beyond pre-programmed oldies and predictable political discussion. Let’s chat.
WRUU is Savannah community radio. We can’t just broadcast to you – we must listen to you as well. The Starburst Program reaches out to you. Bring your friends together for any occasion, and we will send a star host and a member of the staff to listen to your ideas.
Radio once reflected the character and needs of its local community. Today, Savannah’s WRUU community radio continues that tradition. We listen to Savannah as well as broadcasting to it. We want to hear from you. Invite a group of friends over, and we’ll send a host and staff member to listen to all of you about the station. You can tell us what you think without filling out a form. The Starburst Program offers friends of WRUU the opportunity to have a gathering for their friends to discuss the station. WRUU will send one of the Star Hosts and perhaps a staff member.
