Fool's Last Beg
"On April 1, WMPG’s local music show Local Motives takes over the Portland Media Center for a high-energy, one-night-only celebration: Fool’s Last Beg – the grand finale of Begathon.
"Hosted at the #PortlandMediaCenter on Congress Street, the event brings together live radio, music, and a bit of April Fool’s mischief to mark the final push of WMPG’s week-long listener-powered #fundraising drive.
"The evening will be emceed by Erin Ames of Radio Ya-Ya’s and feature a special live broadcast of Local Motives, WMPG’s beloved showcase of local music. The show will feature a set by Crazy Déjà Vu, known to bring “The New Freakout” vibe that will energize both the studio audience and listeners/viewers tuning in from home.
"Among the highlights of the night is 'Shaxx in the Glass.' #LeftOfTheDial host, DJ Shaxx will spin live from the Portland Media Center’s street-facing window, turning Congress Street into a spontaneous dance floor. Fans can also catch his famously unpredictable Karaoke Weather Report, broadcast live over WMPG’s airwaves.
"Flyer for Fools Last Beg Event“It’s exactly the kind of creative collaboration community media makes possible,” said Nate Eldridge, Executive Director of Portland Media Center. 'When local radio and local television come together, you get something spontaneous, joyful, and uniquely Portland. We’re thrilled to open our studio and our windows to the community for this celebration.'
"After a full week of on-air fundraising, Fool’s Last Beg marks the final opportunity for supporters to join the celebration in person and help push Begathon across the finish line
" 'Begathon is when our listeners remind us just how much WMPG means to them,' said #AnnellaLinton, Development Director at WMPG [and a very cool person!]. 'Fool’s Last Beg is our way of celebrating that relationship, with live music, a little silliness, and the incredible energy that comes from a community that believes in independent, local radio.'
"Come down, celebrate, dance in the street, and help keep Portland’s airwaves vibrant and fiercely local. Dress up (fun and colorful) and be in the live music video shoot for Crazy Déjà Vu."

#CommunityVoicesForChange - Maine Women's Lobby
30 mins - First Aired February 23, 2026 on #WMPG-FM
Host: Richard Rudolph"The podcast for February 23, 2026 is an interview of Destie Hoffman Sprague who is the Executive Director of the Maine's Women Lobby. The show focused on a referendum question that will be on the Maine ballot this coming fall which would restrict transgender students’ access to school sports and facilities. Destie first talked about why the League is involved in this issue and why it has joined a coalition to defeat the proposal. The coalition contends the referendum will increase bullying and harassment, cost schools millions in potential ligation and undermine public education. According to Destie the referendum is spearheaded by the group Protect Girls Support in Maine which seeks to mandate sports by sex, requiring public school students to play on sports teams based on the sex listed on their birth certificates. Destie believes the effort to restrict transgender students from playing sports in Maine is primarily driven by the Trump Administration which has threatened to pull federal education funding if the state does not ban transgender girls from female sports. Maine's Governor, Janet Mills, Attorney General Aaron Frey, and the Maine Principals’ Association are opposed. In closing, Destie encouraged listeners to get involved in the fight to defeat this measure. which would undermine Maine's existing #HumanRightsAct which protects #GenderIdentity."

On today's #CommunityVoicesForChange show, the subject was #AntiTrans legislation proposed in #Maine -- sponsored by #ULine CEO #RichardUihlein -- who paid GOONS to gather signatures from #MAGATs! #Uilhein has also sponsored #AntiAbortion legislation and is a major #Trump donor! He is NO FAN of women -- whether cis or trans!
#Billionaire-Funded Anti-Trans Bathroom/Sports Ban Ballot Initiative Moves Forward In Maine
The ballot initiative is bankrolled by billionaire anti-trans donor, Richard Uihlein, and represents a new line of attack against #transgender people in blue states.
Erin Reed
Feb 23, 2026"Anti-trans organization '#ProtectGirlsSportsInMaine' has announced that it has collected enough signatures to get a combination transgender sports ban and school bathroom ban onto the November 2026 ballot, making Maine the second state this year to announce a ballot initiative targeting transgender people in a blue state after a similar effort in Washington.
"This comes after Maine Gov. #JanetMills fiercely rejected Trump administration attempts to strongarm the state into enacting such restrictions on its own, under threat of losing school lunch money and more. Now, voters may directly determine the fate of #TransgenderYouth in schools across the state after a massive signature drive bankrolled by billionaire Republican megadonor Richard Uihlein, the latest in an attempt by ultra-wealthy #conservative donors to export anti-trans discrimination across the United States through direct ballot measures."

I heard an excellent #podcast on #WMPG this afternoon about the #AI #Surveillance state and how #TechBros are bullying towns into hosting #DataCenters! A must-listen!
AI Surveillance Cameras in Maine
30 mins - First Aired December 15, 2025
WMPG-FM. Univ of So. Maine - Weekly - Mondays - 1:00 PM
Producer & Host: Richard Rudolph, PhD."The podcast is an interview of #DylanOliver, a native of #HodgsonME who is a staff member of the Alliance for Secure AI. Dylan talked about how a number of communities in the state have installed AI surveillance cameras which log and store every single car that passes by a given location, creating a searchable database of our movements regardless of whether anyone is suspected of a crime or not. He also talked about how the data can be shared with federal and local agencies for 'investigative purposes' even if a local police department chooses to restrict data to its own officers."

I heard an excellent #podcast on #WMPG this afternoon about the #AI #Surveillance state and how #TechBros are bullying towns into hosting #DataCenters! A must-listen!
AI Surveillance Cameras in Maine
30 mins - First Aired December 15, 2025
WMPG-FM. Univ of So. Maine - Weekly - Mondays - 1:00 PM
Producer & Host: Richard Rudolph, PhD."The podcast is an interview of #DylanOliver, a native of #HodgsonME who is a staff member of the Alliance for Secure AI. Dylan talked about how a number of communities in the state have installed AI surveillance cameras which log and store every single car that passes by a given location, creating a searchable database of our movements regardless of whether anyone is suspected of a crime or not. He also talked about how the data can be shared with federal and local agencies for 'investigative purposes' even if a local police department chooses to restrict data to its own officers."

Every show on our airwaves is created by volunteers who share their own voices, stories, and music choices, not for faceless crowds, but for real people who listen and care. That connection builds trust and belonging, both on and off the air. You can hear it in the conversations, the friendships, and the community that grows around this station. When you give to WMPG, you’re helping keep that human connection strong, keeping real voices and local stories on the air."

On today's #CommunityVoicesForChange on #WMPG, the host interviewed #ShennaBellows about how the #GOP tried to downplay the consequences of the upcoming ballot question, #QuestionOne. This isn't about #VoterFraud, this is about making it harder for #MaineVoters -- and getting rid of #AbsenteeVoting altogether! As for IDs? Only driver's licenses will be accepted! Not #StudentIDs or #TribalIDs! You can see who this is aimed at (as well as Seniors, many of whom vote absentee)!
