Hootenanny Power is a radio show I’ve listened to since coming to Baton Rouge in 2005. It's been on Saturday nights at 9 pm on WRKF Public Radio since 1981. You either tune in or live stream, or miss it. No replays.
There is no advertising or social media, and I’ve always loved that about it.
The term junto dates back to Benjamin Franklin and refers to his group that gathered to ask better questions and share ideas.
The Hootenanny Junto is somewhere in between.
It's partly professional and partly creative.

That's about right.
