IPR's mission is to connect Iowans statewide. The name River to River better reflects the diversity of connecting Iowans, both geographically with the literal meaning of River to River and in the abstract with the idea of things that are moving and still a border and unmoving.The host of the show (Ben Kieffer) remains the same, as does the focus of program on the news and events that shape our state.We will continue to present the program from the statehouse on Mondays during the legislative session. Joyce Russell is the host of that program.Wednesdays will continue to be our weekly look at politics featuring a variety of political science experts in the state of Iowa.We will have new music from Des Moines based band “The River Monks” that better reflects the new name.
