Turi Ryder & Milt Rosenberg

I've met Turi Ryder a few times over the years. She is a friend of John Landecker's from back in their WLS days, and a contributor to the upcoming Eckhartz Press book "Records Truly is My Middle Name". She's also now back on the radio in Chicago. She'll be taking the place of the legendary Milt Rosenberg.

Robert Feder has the details on the new WGN lineup.

Milt's last show is this coming Thursday night. I never got the chance to interview him, but he did briefly agree to be interviewed once for Chicago Radio Spotlight. At the last moment he backed out because he realized he was violating his own rule about granting interviews.

Milt, by the way, also has a connection to the upcoming Landecker book. He was once a student of John's father, an esteemed sociology professor at the University of Michigan, and spoke very highly of him.
