What is Radio Orbit?

My name is Mike Hagan. I am the host and producer of KOPN's Radio Orbit.

Radio Orbit focuses on emerging technology: AI, Biotech, Cryptocurrency, Energy, Robotics, Bionics, Space Travel, Designer Drugs, Entheogens, Man/Machine Interfacing, Nanotechnology, etc. I also love poetry, visual art and music and showcase a unique musical artist each week, throughout the program.

Orbit features a number of regular segments - In depth interviews with leaders in the fields mentioned above, space weather, tributes in memorial and current news. I also open the phones often to hear from listeners.

The program airs every Monday from 11PM - 2AM CST on KOPN 89.5 FM in Columbia, Missouri, USA. The show can be streamed live at: www.kopn.org
