Get the Scoop with Chris and Kristin is an educational radio program that airs daily on Goober 95.1 FM, Monday through Friday at 5:00a.m. The Barren County Extension Agent for Agriculture and Natural Resources and Warren County Extension Agent for Horticulture work together where they write the scripts and then pre-record the 5 minute shows at the radio station. Goober 95.1 FM radio station is located in Bowling Green, KY where it reaches multiple counties located in the South Central Kentucky area with an estimated total reach of 30,000 people. This radio program has allowed agents the opportunity to disseminate research-based information from the University of Kentucky Cooperative Extension Service to both farmers and gardeners. Since October 2016, agents have recorded more than 250 segments related to Agriculture, Natural Resources, Horticulture, Sustainable Agriculture, and nutritional recipes for the family. Feedback from clients and radio station staff to agents personally has been overwhelmingly positive. The segments submitted include plants needed to create a Monarch Waystation and a recipe for Buffalo Style Beef tacos, which aired the week of March 9th through March 13, 2020.
