Pint Size Problems: Recent Episodes
Talk Radio 1190 (KFXR-AM)
Pint Size Problems, Saturday 4pm- 5pm
Pint Size Problems is a weekly radio show broadcast Saturdays at 4pm CST on KFXR in Dallas. It was founded on the premise that the best conversations occur with a small group of people, an open mind and a cold pint.
Trying to find the right time and place to have a conversation can be difficult and usually the loudest voices are not necessarily the ones I want to hear. I started to notice that discussions about certain topics in person were often between like-minded people. However, I like to leave conversations having learned something or having been exposed to a new way of looking at things.
Pint Size Problems features conversations between people about current events in a respectful forum where different life experiences, opinions and points of views are shared.
Thanks for tuning in.
