The Trump administration is expected to ask Congress in the upcoming week to eliminate almost all federal funding to public media, including WPSU, which gets about 20% of its funding through the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.
Your contribution to WPSU is crucial during our spring fund drive, now through May 2. As of 5:52pm on Sunday, listeners have donated $38,429 toward our $100,000 goal. Click here to donate online, and thanks for helping to preserve public radio.
In October of 2025, join WPSU and Collette Travel and Tours as we travel to London, Cornwall, and more on our first group travel. We’ll see the landscapes and homes featured in some our your favorite Masterpiece programs, including Poldark and Downton Abbey.
