Our Mission
Young people today live in a culture where being politically correct has been weaponized. It's shocking that even in America today, no matter what they believe, young people are not able to speak their minds without fear of instant judgment and massive public retribution. Social media and news cycles have become hate-filled and divisive, and the leaders of this World add more fuel to the fire instead of cooling the flames. Studies indicate that young people, or so called “digital natives” are more fearful than previous generations. They are more prone to chronic stress, anxiety, and depression. The digital overload of information and tidal wave of mass opinions are responsible for creating overly complex identities they find hard to handle. Instead of enhancing their lives, these advances in technology have added to their apprehension and loneliness.
Young people long to escape to a simpler time of the past. A time where people were authentic, before selfies and photo filters. Before cell phones and parental tracking. Before playlists and "skip" buttons. They want to press play, relax, and escape their complex and isolating lives.
So, it’s an opportunity for those of us that were teens and young adults back in the day of the original KZEW radio station, to steward the station and pour our hearts and stories into it to make it a relevant and positive force for the young people of today. Our shared experiences and positive vibes are very valuable to them and will inspire them and improve their overall health and happiness and how they treat others.
THE ZOO KZEW RADIO PROJECT is our chance to create a better tomorrow through timeless music and zany comedy. Please join us in this mission.
