Loop special

I spent the afternoon in Naperville being interviewed by this fine lad Brandon Herman on WONC Radio. He is doing a whole special on the history of the Loop, and he asked me to be a part of it. It's going to be a star studded special with the likes of Kevin Matthews, Chet Coppock, Mitch Michaels, Larry Wert, and more.

I was impressed that he knew so much about an era that happened before he was born. He asked good questions and had obviously done his homework. I'll post a link when the podcast is done.

It was an incredible honor for me to finally sit down and talk with @RickKaempfer today at @requestWONC. Our conversation will be featured on a very special broadcast. An announcement is coming soon... pic.twitter.com/HiY4lhdVrP

From Robert Feder's column today, a few more details...

The Loop may be gone from Chicago’s airwaves, but its legacy is hardly forgotten. The latest tribute comes from WONC 89.1 FM, the radio station of North Central College in Naperville. Starting at 4 p.m. Saturday, host Brandon Herman will welcome veterans of The Loop to reminisce. Herman’s guests will include Chet Coppock, Terry Gibson, Rick Kaempfer, John “Byrd” Kempf, John Records Landecker, Kevin Matthews, Jimmy McInerney, Mitch Michaels and Wendy Snyder.
