HELPING HANDS, HELPOTHERS

On this edition of Radio Guy Reflections, we go back to last year to repeat a show about small market radio. Up first Ken Walker a former radio news director who made the unusual switch to newspaper. We also talk about serving the community. I was reminded that January 9 2023 a great radio tradition starts again. The Helping Hands Radio Auction has been a yearly tradition in Paris Tennessee for as long as I remember raising thousands of dollars each year for public service and charitable organization in Henry County. I talked with last years President John Berryman about the history of the event and how WTPR- AM gives airtime to support this yearly event.
