Mutiny Radio is an internet radio based in the San Francisco Bay Area, the station has an eclectic music and talk format, reporting on local events and live performances. Following an ownership dispute of the station's predecessor, in which DJs questioned the leadership and finances of the station, the previous station's live stream and podcast archives were taken offline by the station's founder, and the staff decided to reform as a collective with more oversight and accountability. According to a March 2011 statement by the collective members, "Our efforts from the beginning have been to extract ourselves from the ownership situation and focus on our core mission: making quality radio and building a supportive community. That is what we are focusing on now." They stated their plan is to work "more democratically."〔 This reformation initially consisted of putting podcasts up on the website Ustream to maintain radio operations and keep the community intact.〔 DJs continued to work from the former cafe.〔 The full relaunch was ready by the end of May, with Programming Director Aaron Lazenby stating that they were "tired of living in the wake of that drama" and adding that "we’re ready to be something else." There was a closing ceremony on May 31, 2011, hosted by DJ Nylon. On June 1, 2011, the station was relaunched as Mutiny Radio, a name chosen to reflect "the right balance of where we’ve come from and where we’re going," according to Lazenby, which "showed the scars" of the past, but also expressed their new future.〔 According to the website, the Mutiny Radio live stream "features the same eclectic mix of live music, interviews, DJ performances, news, and comedy the members of the collective have been producing for the past 6 years." The site's ('About Us' page ) boasts broadcasts of live musical performances, poetry, comedy, theater and interviews with "artists, activists and thinkers that live, work or come through the Bay Area and deserve to be heard." Unlike its predecessor’s illegal broadcast, Mutiny Radio is an online-only, nonprofit radio station. In 2012, the station successfully raised over $5,000 through a Kickstarter campaign to be used for rent and other expenses to keep the station sustainable. This was later featured as one of Radio Survivor's "(Five Kickstarter radio projects that worked )" Over 40 DJs produce and run their own shows, which includes a show produced by the nearby Boys & Girls Club.
