WRRS is excited to announce a wonderful new series! Beginning Wednesday, December 4, 2024, WRRS 104.3 LPFM will start broadcasting the Lord of the Rings trilogy, read by our long-time radio reader, Dan Cook. Dan has been a part of the WRRS 104.3 LPFM volunteer team since the fall of 2017, initially reading the Berkshire Eagle. Recently, he expanded his repertoire to include fantasy books for the Berkshire Talking Chronicle’s Summer Reading Program for Kids.

Dan first read The Hobbit and then traveled back in time to explore the 19th-century series The Princess and the Goblin, written by George MacDonald. Many fans of the Lord of the Rings series believe that MacDonald’s work inspired Tolkien to write both The Hobbit and the Lord of the Rings.

Now, we are fortunate to embark on a comprehensive journey through the Lord of the Rings series with Dan, who will provide his best and longest reading to date. Each Wednesday at 3:30 PM, we invite everyone to pause their activities, grab a snack and a beverage, and listen to one of the greatest fantasy series ever written. We hope everyone enjoys this opportunity to relax and participate in the Berkshire Talking Chronicle’s fantasy story hour, one of the many programs offered by BTC for our listeners.

The mission of WRRS 104.3 LPFM is to create an engaging radio experience that fosters inclusion for the sight and print impaired. Since our establishment in 1984 and first live broadcast in 1986, we have proudly served as a vital part of this community. Located in Pittsfield at the Clock Tower Business Center, Suite 201, 75 South Church Street, we invite you to join us in our commitment to providing accessible and inspiring programming that enhances lives.
