A new community radio station recently joined Boise's airwaves.

It is Tropico FM and their mission is to uplift diverse voices through music, where you can find everything from salsa, samba, disco and Tejano music on the dial.

Kyle Scheffler is the founder and president of Tropico FM and he joined Idaho Matters to talk more.

As Senior Producer of our live daily talk show Idaho Matters, I’m able to indulge my love of storytelling and share all kinds of information (I was probably a Town Crier in a past life). My career has allowed me to learn something new everyday and to share that knowledge with all my friends on the radio.

You make stories like this possible.
