There’s something unusual about KAOS.

We aren’t just about entertaining listeners with music and talk. (Of course, we do that too.) We are something more – community radio, with a purpose and a passion: to reach, build and activate people to make a positive impact in the world.

We’re also owned and operated by a registered Canadian charity, King’s Kids Promotions Outreach Ministries Incorporated, and by the people who live in Peterborough. In other words, we’re non-profit—and we depend on our listeners, sponsors and advertisers to help us meet our goals.

We focus on programming and outreach, and aims to expose hope, through music, talk and action!

It began with one man’s vision.

Rick Kirschner is the “father” of KAOS Radio. He had a vision for this new station: to “expose hope through music, talk, and action.” He’s passionate about young people, and about redeeming the media image as a form of positive communication. Rick has put his heart into seeing his dream become a reality.

On November 25, 2004 the switch was thrown and KAOS went on the air for the first time in Peterborough, ON. We are not just another radio station but one designed with a purpose of bringing hope to our chaotic world through relevant music, talk, and action.

We are a ROCK station, playing the best contemporary and Christian rock hits, 24 hours a day.

We are a fun station.  Play us at work, in the car, at home or on the internet.  You’ll never have to worry about inappropriate content or questionable banter.  (Except perhaps the inane ramblings of our DJ’s).
