Teen Feed works with the community to address basic needs, build strong relationships,
and ally with homeless youth as they meet their future off the streets.
Teen Feed is a free, healthy dinner for homeless youth ages 13 – 25,
five nights every week in Seattle's University District. We serve up to 70 homeless young people each night – that's over 11,000 dinners each year.
4 things you can do right now to get involved with Teen Feed:
- Do you dread the northwest winter? Host a tube sock drive! Homeless youth wear through warm socks quickly in Seattle’s cold,
wet winter – and when your feet are cold, you are cold.
- Have Friday nights free? Teen Feed is expanding to Friday nights starting in January.
We need warm and extroverted adults to serve as Advocates – eating dinner with and being a listening ear for youth at Teen Feed.
- Are you an excellent cook? Do you know how to warm up a hot pocket? Organize a group of 7 – 15
friends/coworkers/family to cook and serve a meal for 70 homeless youth at Teen Feed.
- Enthusiastically wearing a Christmas sweater? Your kitchen smells like Rugelach? Keep up the cheer and be a Secret Santa for a young person living on our streets! Act fast! Youth are being sponsored now ..

Audioasis is KEXP's long-running Northwest music show hosted by Hannah
Levin. Past hosts have included Jonathen Poneman, Jason Hughes, Scott
Vanderpool, Stevie Zoom, Lisa Wood, Abe Beeson and Sean Nelson. John
Richards is the Executive Producer of the show and Sharlese Metcalf is
the Producer. Audioasis delivers three hours of local and live bands
from all areas and genres of the Northwest. On Audioasis, you'll hear
the new, the old, the demos, the vinyl, and the future of Northwest
music. Every first Saturday of the month you can catch Audioasis at The
Sunset Tavern in Ballard LIVE! Tune in Saturday from 6-9PM.
Hannah Levin:
I’ve been in the music business in one form or another for ten years,
working as everything from a booking agent for local bands to a ticket
taker at the Showbox, but I’m definitely happiest now in my dual role as
the author of Seattle Weekly’s music column, Rocket Queen, and a host of
KEXP’s locally focused Audioasis show. Drawing attention to new
Northwest artists working on the margins, or ones who have been
historically overlooked is my primary passion, though I’m hardly an
obscurest: there’s nothing wrong with throwing on a Nirvana record when
the mood strikes. I have a distinct proclivity for the noisier end of
the sonic spectrum; blowing my hearing with harder rock, metal, and punk
is apparently what I was destined to do. That said, I also have a deep
affection for this area’s fertile alt-country community and can
appreciate insightful singer-songwriters as much as the next sensitive
gal. Furthermore, anyone unaware that the hip hop scene here is a
growing force to be reckoned with simply isn’t paying attention (and,
more importantly, is missing out). There’s much to love on the local
level.
Sharlese Metcalf:
I began the radio program at Green River Community College with a weird
obsession of the NW music scene. I hosted Local Motion, the local music
show at KGRG, for 3 years. I began volunteering at KEXP in 2005 and have
been working on Audioasis ever since. In 2007, I became Assistant
Producer of the show and now as of 2008 I'm the Producer, which, I
think, is the coolest job on the planet. My love for local music has
grown tons and is now more than an obsession; it’s a way of life. I’m
happy to be a part of the greatest and longest running local music show
in Seattle.
