Roger Badesch

 Thanks so much to Robert Feder the mention of Roger's book in his column today...


Longtime Chicago radio newsman Roger Badesch has just released the audio-book version of his acclaimed 2020 memoir, The Unplanned Life: The Journey of Roger Badesch, on Audible. He told Eckhartz Press publisher Rick Kampfer he was inspired to write the book by a certain host on Nexstar Media news/talk WGN 720-AM, where Badesch anchors weekend newscasts. “Rick Kogan was intrigued by my stories during his WGN Radio program and encouraged me, my wife said I should do it, and I had lots of retirement time on my hands,” Badesch said.
