About

Humboldt Last Week is Humboldt County's news podcast and more.

Listeners will hear "quick local stories" summarizing the previous week's top stories, delivering crucial community information which some listeners may have missed or not yet heard.

Showing appreciation for the county's beauty, upsides, and potential, the program's mission is to prepare regular listeners with essential local information, topics for conversation, and topics for further reading.

Myles Cochrane hosts. With a Cal Poly Humboldt degree in journalism and broadcasting, he's spent well over a decade locally as a radio personality and reporter. Most notably he directed KSLG-FM and wrote for the Times-Standard before founding Humboldt Last Week.

The home base for the program is humboldtlastweek.com but it is also available via Apple, Spotify, major podcast networks, Redheaded Blackbelt at kymkemp.com, 99.1 KISS FM on Mondays, and the North Coast Journal at northcoastjournal.com.

In addition to the award-winning news podcast, Humboldt Last Week also hosts an alternative music radio station with no commercials.
