The Radio Show
Broadcasting since February 7, 1997, Prime Time Polkas is heard Saturdays from 11AM - 1PM on 620 AM WKHB Radio with 5,500 watts of power serving the southwestern PA area including the entire Pittsburgh market plus parts of Ohio, West Virginia and Maryland (view KHB's coverage map).  Hosted by Pam & Jerry Zagar and Don Rutkauskas, we specialize in playing the best of Slovenian / Cleveland style polkas and waltzes in a professional-style format; with MORE MUSIC, and LESS TALK!  You may hear an occasional Polish, German and/or Italian tune thrown in for diversity.  We produce this program with you, the listener, in mind. Featured are a lot of the newer music including premieres of new recordings and interviews with the musicians that produce them. From time to time, special guests show up unannounced and add to the spontaneity of this show.  We certainly hope you enjoy our show and if you do, please tell your friends wherever they are!  (more..)

11/19/08  Big things are in the works for our Live365 Broadcasting Station.  We admit it is in need of some updating.  To be honest, the last time we updated was Nov. '07!  A new computer & a 500GB hard drive will make this much easier for us.  The playlist will be overhauled to include the very latest polka recordings to the classics of the 1940s, 1950s and up.  The station's bitrate will be increased to 32kbps in mp3pro stereo sound.  This is a monumental undertaking considering our current Live365 playlist is close to 34 hours with over 700 "best of"polkas & waltzes, so give us time.  We promise it'll be worth the wait!  In the meantime, if you'd like to sign up as a VIP Live365 member & listen to polka music ad-free, click the link below.  It also helps us pay for the station, so click up & join today.
