One time, at a party in Ann Arbor...

Fela Kuti's tune Let's Start began to play on 88.3 WCBN | FM | Ann Arbor.  Unbeknownst to everyone, It's Hot in Here was born.

Putting that knowledge in conversation with practice in Detroit, Ann Arbor and the World, It's Hot in Here ushered in a new era in eco-optimistic college talk radio, with local and global music to boot.

Ten years and over two hundred live shows later, a seed that started off as a joke at that party grew into a family of friends, research specialists, activists, policy makers, artists, journalists and more.
