Hosted and produced by Jeff Wax every Friday from 1:00-3:00 PM CST on KPFT HD-3 Radio in Houston, Texas - 90.1 FM; live stream at www.kpft.org "Desert Island Discs" is a long-form interview program heard on KPFT Radio (90.1 FM) in Houston, Texas. Each week people from all aspects of life are asked the question, if you were to be cast away alone on a desert island, which eight songs would you choose to have with you, assuming of course, that you had a listening device and an inexhaustible power source. We hear excerpts from each of the castaways selections, - discussion of their choices permits a review of their life and listeners have the opportunity to meet a variety of interesting members of the community "up close and personal". The beauty of Desert Island Discs is that the format lends itself perfectly for our guest to relax, forget the sound-bites, and reminisce about stories from their life. For an audience used to the rough and tumble of news interviews or television chat-shows, Desert Island Discs is a breath of fresh air.
