Where can you hear interviews with Oliver North or Noam Chomsky — then a show called “Music to Go to the Dump By”? Which station on your radio dial will still interrupt music programming to tell you about a lost collie? Of course, it’s our own Waterbury-based WDEV. The tribute to Vermont’s oldest locally owned radio station is by Waitsfield filmmaker Ed Dooley, who uses interviews and historical footage to tell the story of WDEV, which hit the airwaves in 1931, when the country was still in the grip of the Depression. 56 minutes. Sponsored by Figrig Web Crafters. Community Partner: Vermont Historical Society. Post-film event: Filmmaker Ed Dooley, plus Ken Squier and Eric Michaels of WDEV, will discuss the film.
