Jeremy Kadinger's Song of the Soul |
Mark, Thank you forMark, Thank you for introducing us to Northern Spirit Radio. I listened to Jeremy Kadinger's Song of the Soul and enjoyed it thoroughly. His wide knowledge of and experience with music came through clearly, not only in that which he said but also in the songs he selected to play for the listening audience. In the process, I learned about musicians who are new to me, people whose albums I'd like to purchase, like the Five Blind Men of Mississippi or even the one by Johnny Cash with which I wasn't familiar. Your approach to him during the interview was so calm, so respectful, so incisive. I thank you for that. You didn't sound "preachy," but instead drew him out in a way that obviously called out his best. I will be tuning into Northern Spirit Radio often in the future. | Ruth Scharnau,… (not verified) | |
Michelle Balas - Northern Thunder |
Wow, I turned on the radioWow, I turned on the radio this afternoon to hear Michelle Balas on WHYS being interviewed by Mark Helpsmeet for Spirit in Action. She did a great job explaining some of the things Northern Thunder has been involved in and the issues we face today. Of course, there is a good deal of information about Michelle herself. If you missed it you can here it here. (7/16/2006) This was an excellent show! Well worth a listen. | Dan Drum (not verified) | |
Bethany Jacobson/Military Families Speak Out |
Enjoyed the balanced approachI enjoyed the balanced approach to the show Bethany Jacobson/Military Families Speak Out The show was a very welcome change of pace from the normal choices of listening either to whining liberals or evangelical conservatives. You did a pretty good job of not putting thoughts and words into Bethany's mouth, although it was, I am sure, hard to resist. Hope this continues. | Phillip T Brux (not verified) | |
Earth Day 2005 |
New showI just heard a locally produced show called "spirit in action". It's sunday at 1pm now. I turned my dial over to WHYS after my favorite NPR show "this american life" was over at noon. On the spirit in action show Mark interviewed folks that helped organize this year's Earth Day event in April. He interspersed his professional, personal interviews with a variety of interesting music. I'm not sure how this show will be promoted, but as a non-christian I found it very interesting and not preachy at all. My hope is that folks with all sorts of beliefs feel welcome to listen and provide input to the show. | Aaron (not verified) |
