Live Wire! is a radio variety show recorded in front of an enthusiastic live audience from the Alberta Rose Theatre in NE Portland, airs each week around the state and in SW Washington via Oregon Public Broadcasting (OPB), on stations around the country and is heard nationally and internationally through its podcasts. It’s music, it’s conversation, it’s sketch comedy. It's radio variety for the A.D.D. generation.
