Thanksgiving really is a time to be thankful. At 88.1 KDHX we have hundreds of reasons. The Internet itself isn't big enough to contain them all, so here's a sample, from our DJs and staff, in this season of thanks.

This Halloween we asked the DJs of 88.1 KDHX to pick their favorite creepy and/or disturbing and/or terrifying song. Forget about the "Monster Mash." This playlist will chill you long after Boris and the gang have slumped back into their clichéd crypts.

Sad news came across the wires last night: Tim Mize -- a longtime KDHX volunteer and a central figure on the St. Louis punk scene -- has passed away after suffering a brain aneurism and a massive stroke.

"All Soul, No Borders" is weekly proof of why Josh Weinstein is sometimes described as a musical holy man and shaman.

"St. Louis and New Orleans have been linked forever," says Mark "Sunny Boy" Mason. Every Tuesday afternoon, 4-7 p.m. Central, he proves it, bringing a Mardi Gras of music to the airwaves with his 88.1 KDHX show Howzit Bayou?

For the last three years, Chris Lawyer has been the host of Hip City on 88.1 KDHX, each Wednesday, 2 p.m.-4 p.m. Central. Every show is an opportunity to get schooled on some of the best and lesser-known gems of '60s, '70s and current funk and soul music, with the occasional cut of hip-hop thrown in for good measure.

Having been in the radio industry for over 30 years, Ital-K is well known worldwide in the reggae community. In this interview Ital-K, host of Ital Rhythms on 88.1 KDHX, discuses the depths of reggae culture and music as he lives it, his connection to the Marley family and how he plans to bring quality reggae acts to St. Louis for 2011.
