    Robert Conlon visits. His fictional book "Celtic Knot" based on his real-life Grandfather's epic story, is an entertaining read. His Grand-dad Tim lived an adventure-filled lifetime, beginning as an orphaned child at the age of 8 on the streets of 1800's Chicago. Robert grew up listening to his Grand-dad spinning the tales of his youth, captivated with each and every story.

    Robert visited this Saturday morning for a chat. He was so interesting, we couldn't let him leave!

    Find the book on Eckhartz Press and Amazon.

  • Darren Holden of The High Kings, live call-in chat 14th March, 2026

    Ever wonder what live radio/live tv is really like? It can be chaotic-bloopers galore! It's how you roll that matters. Just keep going, just keep talking, embrace the ridiculousness! Tune in live some Saturday & you'll hear it. It's real, real, real. This particular Saturday, marching day for St Patrick's in Chicago, green river and all, Darren Holden takes a few minutes away from road-tripping to the next gig & calls in. It was a surprise for our listeners-and a bit of a surprise for me! Darren rang in over an hour earlier than scheduled. Didn't matter, I would chat with him ANY TIME! Take a listen. This guy is the whole package. He can chat away w/complete comfort. Loved this for our audience!
