The station was started in February 2000 by Bill Goldsmith and his wife Rebecca Goldsmith . It was originally operated from their home in Paradise , California , from which it derives its name . When the town was largely destroyed by wildfire in November 2018 , the Goldsmiths reassured their listeners via their website that they and the station were safe , as they had relocated to the Borrego Valley ( east of San Diego , California ) around 2016
