Re: Coffee with Maya

Posted onApril 22, 2009

The website looks so good. 

I met with Maya today. She mentioned that she saw our website and was very impressed. I filled her in on all the latest developments on the show. We came up with some collaborative ideas. 

  • Make link to Maya’s program “Raisin’ the standard” on our website.
  • Maya replay segments from our show on hers- different audience Sun midnight til 4am Monday. 
  • Maya submit MP3 file segments under 10 mins for LRC. Send them to Vanessa and Nina –
  • Maya is currently in negotiations with KPFA re : sexual harassment law suit. So she’s only comfortable at the station when there is no one around- as advised I think also by the lawyer.
  • BTW: re: website Daniel’s foto probably belongs in a different section than  collective members. Contributors- like Diana Martinez, Rafael etc. Also we should credit Adrian Arias for website banner.

Hi Ctone, I think the promo for last night is best in this version -more accurate.I hope you can use this one instead of what I sent you earlier. I am including it below. Plz tell me what you think. I sent a similar one for the  KPFA website and cc’d you. But this version is an improvement on that one. 

I am meeting for coffee this morning w/ Maya Orozco, who was a major contributor to LRC and currently does a weekly late nite show “Raisin’ the Standard” on Sunday nite/Monday morning.

Ctone: Can we change the promo 4/21/09 it for the website without mailing it out…so we don’t overwhelm subscribers with email. I took out the cumbre and JR and added Daniel – so it reflects the actual content. I am also asking the same of the KPFA website. It should read:
