Here is something I have found to be very interesting, informative and enjoyable, which a combination of all three seems to be rare these days, and is worth a read and a listen.
The Desert Oracle also known as "The Voice of the Desert" publishes a small guide with short stories and other information about the Mojave Desert and surrounding areas.

They have recently started the Desert Oracle Radio program on 107.7 KCDZ in Joshua Tree. The 30-minute program airs about every Friday at 10 p.m. and you can also listen to the programs as a podcast.
