Forum is a popular two hour live call-in radio program produced by KQED-FM, presenting discussions of local, state, national and international issues, and in-depth interviews. The program began in 1990 as a politics-oriented talk show, created and hosted in by Kevin Pursglove.[1] Since 1993, it has been hosted by scholar, author, professor, and former KGO Radio host Michael Krasny who broadened the program's scope to a cross-section of current events.[2][3] The format of Forum varies from show to show, but generally involves an in-person interview with one or more subjects, often nationally prominent authors and scholars.[4] The program airs for two hours on weekday mornings.
