KSLG-FM is a commercial modern rock music radio station in Ferndale, California, broadcasting to the Eureka, California area on 94.1 FM. KSLG-FM is branded as K-Slug, which refers to the banana slugs native to the region.
KSLG-FM actively uses MySpace, Facebook, and Twitter as a tool to connect with fans and local bands in the Humboldt County area.
History
KSLG-FM launched on May 1, 2001, three years after Lost Coast Communications secured the license from the FCC. Lost Coast Communications paid another radio operator, Eureka Broadcasting, US$70,000 to withdraw a bid for the 94.1 Frequency, then had to secure investors to begin operating.
Personalities -Present
In the beginning, KSLG had only two DJs: John Matthews, a veteran of KPFK in Los Angeles, and Dr. Syd Reagan III, "bastard son of 99 Republicans."
Matthews and Dr. Syd still man the weekday morning and afternoon slots, respectively, Matthews from 6am to 12 noon PT and Reagan from 12 noon to 6pm PT.
Matthews also hosts from 6am to 10am on the weekend.
Myles Cochrane hosts his show, "Myles To Midnight," on weeknights from 6pm to midnight PT and on weekends from 7pm to midnight PT.
Weekday middays were hosted by Jen Savage, but as of Fall 2009 she hosts weekends from 3pm to 7pm PT.
Slug Festivities Guide host Monica Topping hosts weekend middays (10am to 3pm PT).
Personalities -Past
Makeisha hosted nights in KSLG's early days. She also hosted the station's first metal feature, "Get Your Rocks Off."
Mitch Hinman took over as the evening host, following Makeisha.
Ashley Ramone covered nights, post-Mitch Hinman, and had a feature called "4 Degrees Of Tool" to link the rock band Tool to other artists.
Plastic Jackson hosted the evening show "Happy Endings."
