Author: KMOJ-89.9 FM “The People’s Station” April 15, 2026 Duration: 1:00:36

Life has been life-ing, nonstop. We’re showing up for everybody—family, kids, work, and our community—but let’s be real, who’s showing up for you? We’re carrying pressure, grief, responsibilities, and still expected to smile like everything’s okay. Saying “I’m good” has become automatic, but are you really? This week on The 4 Opinions, we’re opening the floor for a real conversation about mental health, burnout, and self-care in our community


From the studios of KMOJ-89.9 FM “The People’s Station” in Minneapolis comes KMOJ's Community Viewpoint, a series of conversations rooted in nearly five decades of community connection. This podcast extends the station's legacy beyond the radio dial, creating a dedicated space for discussions that matter deeply to the communities of color it serves. Each episode delves into the issues, stories, and perspectives that directly impact collective health and well-being, from local initiatives to broader cultural shifts. You’ll hear authentic dialogue that reflects the lived experiences of the community, fostering understanding and highlighting paths forward. The tone is informed by the station's long history, having first gone on the air in 1976, and carries the same commitment to being a genuine resource. Tuning into this podcast means engaging with the ongoing narrative of a resilient and vibrant community, exploring topics across education, culture, and society with depth and nuance. It’s more than just a broadcast; it’s a continuing conversation for and by the people, capturing the contemporary pulse of urban life and community advocacy through thoughtful, necessary dialogue.
