This Halloween tune your radio dial to 92.9fm or stream if via your favorite device. What better way to celebrate the Day of the Dead than with People Who Have Died. (Almost) all day, our music shows are only playing artists that are dead.   Tune in and dig sweet sounds from the great beyond.

It all begins at 2pm following Democracy Now! (noon-1) and The Missing Branch (1-2).

Listen Up! with Tom Casetta kicks it off from 2-4pm followed by Jim Bear (The Sunday Vibe ) at 4pm. Reade McCardell (FEWSH ) keeps the celebration going from 6-8pm and Joanna  (The Sunday Mix Tape) keeps it going from 9-10pm. At 10pm, it is time for Get Over The Hump to take you to the midnight hour.
