  “UNDER THE INFLUENCE” , The highs and lows of Drug and alcohol use in American culture. With “UNDER THE INFLUENCE” WPKN explores this complex subject in all it's facets. What we aired was an audio impression of what artists and experts have been saying about drugs and alcohol over the years. We have assembled a list of nearly a thousand songs and comedy bits and many interviews with rehab experts and celebrities commenting about their own experiences and we are quite sure all of you who are listening could suggest a few more. As always, music continues to reflect our personal, social, culture and political history over time and within these two days WPKN took an in depth look at this complex subject and brought our unique mix of music, commentary, personal stories and community resources to bear in a way that is entertaining, informative and uniquely WPKN. We think it's a fascinating mix of content and we hope that all our efforts will stimulate you to contribute to WPKN somewhere along the way. At WPKN.org That way we can keep providing you with the provocative, entertaining programming you've become accustomed to getting from WPKN.
