Two candidates will be featured on each daily episode of the program during the week of April 14-April 17, live from noon to 1:00 p.m.
Listeners are encouraged to call in to participate and engage with the candidates on topics important to them and the San Antonio community. Leave a message before the program at (210) 615-8982.
