Tune in to Good Folk on Thursday, October 13th at 9:00 pm when Dick Hageman (left, with broadcaster Don Wismann) celebrates 40 years on air with a countdown of "The Top 100 Folk Gems." Over three consecutive Thursdays, Dick presents his playlist "based on enduring popularity, impact, influence, and historical significance, performed by the original artists and accompanied by folk music nostalgia and commentary." Count along with Dick and learn how you can receive one of the four CDs he'll give away during each of the three celebratory programs.

Dick tell us “around the late 1970s, there was a big band broadcaster named ‘Ken Mitchell’ (a.k.a. Elliot David) at WMNR who was an administrator colleague in the Stratford School System. He introduced me to WMNR and invited me in to present the news on his program on Thursday nights. We were located at Masuk High School at that time and had a teletype machine. Elliot knew I was active on radio for three years when I was in college (WTCC at Central Connecticut State University). One thing led to another and I was invited to become a classical music broadcaster which I did for several years.”
