WCAI, Cape and Islands NPR StationMeet You at the PubBy Mindy Todd, WCAI’s Managing Director for Editorial and HostCape Cod and the Islands can be quiet in the winter months, but back in2004, we thought of a cure for cabin fever: WCAI Pub Nights!The nights are opportunities for listeners to meet our on-air hosts andcontributors as well as our off-air staff, while also getting to know otherpublic radio listeners.We never expected Pub Nights to become annual events, but when wetook a year off, so many listeners requested we bring them back that we feltwe had to oblige. We typically visit half a dozen pubs throughout our listeningarea to enjoy evenings of refreshments and conversation.“People are always so happy to see us and to talk aboutthe local issues they care about,” says Sean Corcoran, WCAI’ssenior reporter and editor. “People want to know how to getin touch and share story ideas, so I hand them my card andtell them to simply give me a call anytime they want to talk.”Listeners appreciate the chance to connect with the peoplethey turn to every day on the radio. “I just have to put aface with your voices,” a listener commented at a recent Pub Night. Anotherlistener said, “It’s great to have the opportunity to give ideas to you guys andto find out how you go about selecting your programs and topics.”Listeners aren’t the only ones who enjoy the evenings. “We’re committedto being the best local radio service we can be, and people appreciate it,”Corcoran says. “It’s inspiring to hear people comment on your work andthank you for what you do.”The remaining Pub Nights in 2013 are April 18 in Wellfleet (locationto be determined), April 25 at the Nantucket Hotel, and May 16 at theWaterfront Grill in New Bedford.
