Code Switch and Life Kit will debut as a broadcast program the weekend of August 14 bringing you an hour of important ideas and practical advice.
You will hear stories about race and identity to expand your mind, and learn practical ways to make your life better. It’s lifelong learning that ranges from the big picture to tiny details and everything in between. Code Switch and Life Kit will broadcast Saturdays at 7am beginning August 14.
The hour will start with Code Switch, featuring journalists of color tackling the subject of race head-on. Code Switch explores how race impacts every part of society — from politics and pop culture to history, sports and more.
In the second part of the show, Life Kit offers tips and guidance on a wide range of topics. From workplace microaggressions to saving money and more, Life Kit talks with the experts to get the best advice out there.
Both programs have existing as podcasts and occasional segments on Morning Edition and All Things Considered. You can preview Code Switch and Life Kit ahead of the pair’s start on WITF.
Code Switch and Life Kit broadcast Saturdays at 7am beginning August 14. These two programs are added to the schedule to replace Planet Money and How I Built This which are moving later Saturday morning to 11am due to the discontinuation of Ask Me Another. This is part of broader changes to our radio schedule beginning August 14. The complete schedule will be available soon.
A collection of interviews, photos, and music videos, featuring local musicians who have stopped by the WITF performance studio to share a little discussion and sound. Produced by WITF’s Joe Ulrich.
