A non-commercial educational FM station licensed in Pasadena, California, broadcasting at 89.3 MHz under the brand LAist 89.3. The station is owned by Pasadena City College and operated by Southern California Public Radio (SCPR), a subsidiary of American Public Media Group. It serves as an affiliate of both National Public Radio and Public Radio Exchange, originating some of its own programming. SCPR reported serving more than 527,000 listeners weekly as of 2023, making it one of the most-listened-to public radio operations in California. The station's signal primarily covers Greater Los Angeles and the San Fernando Valley, with additional reach through rebroadcasting and translator stations extending coverage to Santa Barbara, the Coachella Valley, Palm Springs, Ventura County, and portions of the Inland Empire. Studios are located inside the Mohn Broadcast Center and Crawford Family Forum on South Raymond Street in Pasadena, with the transmitter on Mount Wilson. It is one of two full NPR members in the Los Angeles area, alongside Santa Monica-based KCRW. Pasadena City College's involvement in radio dates to 1934, when the institution hosted a monthly program on a local church station. The college opened a radio studio in December 1947 and began its own FM broadcasts in April 1957 as KPCS. The current KPCC call sign and affiliation framework developed over subsequent decades. News coverage encompasses local Los Angeles-area politics, housing, homelessness, education, climate and environment, and immigration policy, reflecting the priorities of the Southern California public radio audience.
