Article now posted OnMilwaukee.com

A wonderful article about our program is now posted on the OnMilwaukee.com site. You can reach it from http://www.onmilwaukee.com/ent/articles/stunde.html.

Let me know what you think of it on our forum!

Amazing news!

I will soon be recording an interview with Amy Carter (see home page), America's Ultimate Queen. This is on the heels of recording the interview with Feller & Feller, two of the hottest rising stars of German Schlager music. It's been a great week and we're working up to the best anniversary yet--and we've had 14 before this one!

Exciting developments for the show!

Super-duper website, OnMilwaukee.com, will be running an article about the program (and me) sometime this week. When I have the final link, I'll post it on the blog immediately. Usually, that would be our biggest news, but we have more.

The website has added a countdown clock to the actual 15th Anniversary of my hitting the airwaves in Milwaukee. It is actually calibrated to the precise second, so be sure to check it out on the main home page.

On that same home page, we've added a Fast Find menu. (Look over to the left, just below the clock.) Now you can quick click to the update on the upcoming guest you are most interested. This is a great way to quickly get to some of our latest announcements, such as our interviews that are coming with German recording artists and superstars, Feller & Feller, and our interview with the nationally recognized America's Ultimate Queen, Amy Carter. Now finding your favorite story is quicker and easier than ever.

Post your interest on any of our upcoming interviews out on our Forum. We want to interact with you and bring you the type of programming you want. We'll see you all in the forum.

Marta and Maria were up to their tricks again!

Maria Olliges, our talent coordinator from Meppen, Germany, and our master Deutsch interviewer, Marta Kretschmann, have cooked up another spectacular interview for us.


Feller & Feller, Schlager superstars from Ostfriesland, were on the telephone with Marta and we will be broadcasting their interview on February 26, 2005.

Marta Kretschmann says, "This was a really fun interview. Hansi was a very articulate young man--though he talks rather fast--and was a lot of fun to talk to."

You'll learn more about the "Fellers" and their spectacular musical selections on the Stimmung Stunde leading up to the interview. Hansi is even sending us an additional CD to make sure we have the latest and greatest selection of Feller & Feller music.

Angela Zanon interview

Our interview today with Angela Zanon was a complete delight! Angela is strong, self-assured young lady with lots of determination to do the best at all she attempts.

And she succeeds.

She told us about her family, education, and her future plans today with quiet optimism and enthusiastic purpose in her oratory. It was so fun to learn about this exciting young person in our wonderful city.

We had a really fun recording session after the show that will doubtless create many interesting spots and IDs for the show in the days, weeks and months to come!

Thanks, Angela, for coming on the show!
