KWBU Community Events

At KWBU, we love connecting with and strengthening our community. Bringing loyal listeners and newcomers alike beyond the airwaves. One of our favorite ways to do that is meeting in person through a number of fun events.

Lunch This Month was a great way to meet members within our community, whilst sampling great food from local businesses, but we've recently decided to expand the initiative. With KWBU Meetup's we'll be gathering at different times in different places to further strengthen those connections whilst seeing more of what Waco has to offer.

Whether you're new to the city of Waco or you're a longstanding local, KWBU Community events are a great way to get to know fellow listeners and members of the team here at Waco Public Radio.

Our next KWBU Meetup will be taking place from 8am on November 22, so be sure to swing by Common Grounds on Franklin Ave for great coffee and conversation.

A regular fixture in our calendar is the Likely Stories Book Club. A natural evolution of a much beloved staple here on Waco Public Radio. Details of the next meeting can be found below and if you head here, you can get more information on Likely Stories Book Club and sign up to the mailing list.

If books aren't your thing but films are, or perhaps your passionate about both, then Waco Movie Club might be just the thing for you. It's like a book club but with, well yeah...movies. In partnership with Waco Independent Film Festival, Waco Movie Club aims to bring like minded lovers of cinema together.

The next film up for discussion is 'Saving Private Ryan.'

Alongside the usual socializing and analyzing, we'll also have a discussion lead by Baylor University Associate Professor of Political Science, Dr. Peter Campbell.

Dr. Campbell is a leading scholar on international security, civil-military relations, strategy, and cyber warfare. At Movie Club we’ll dive into why Saving Private Ryan might be the most authentic depiction of war on film.

You can find more information on the movie along with ways to watch it right here.
