Featured Speakers:

Julie Kredens |
A Chicago native (and Cubs fan by birth), Julie Kredens
did most of her growing up in Louisville. A Western Kentucky University
graduate (with a degree in theatre and history), she began her radio
career more than ten years ago, first on the
|
|
WQMF morning show, Uncle Ron's Asylum, then as a news reporter
for WHAS radio. Julie also spent time as editorial assistant for
a newsletter on journalism ethics.
Julie left broadcasting for a period of years to work in public
relations. But finding the radio bug hard to shake, she did occasional
work for the old WFPK program ArtScene. Julie's second foray into
Louisville radio came in September 1998, when she once again joined
WQMF's Rocky and Troy morning show.
She began working part-time as a researcher for WFPL's State of
Affairs, finally joining the PRP staff full-time in May 2000 as
local host for Morning Edition. Julie now hosts State of Affairs.

Denton Randall is a
40-year veteran of music and talk radio. Originally from Los Angeles,
his career began as a "Top 40" disc jockey on a small station in North
Carolina. He later helped to pioneer the so-called "Underground FM"
revolution on such legendary stations as KPPC, Los Angeles, KMYR,
Denver and WEBN, Cincinnati. |
|
He served as Program Director at KLOL, Houston and KCFX, Kansas
City, the first "Classic Rock" station in the country. He returned
to the airwaves at WQMF, Louisville, but left music radio for News/Talk
radio because "If I played 'Stairway to Heaven' one more time, I
was going to take my own life!"
His talk radio career began as host of a morning news/talk show
on WWKY, Louisville. In the mid-90's he joined the WHAS, Louisville
news department. In 2000, he left full-time radio to the join the
staff of Louisville's Dare to Care Food Bank, where he currently
serves as Director of Community Relations. He has since hosted a
Sunday afternoon talk program, "Denton Randall Radio Sundae, " and
also does fill-ins and vacation relief on WHAS. He enjoys blues
guitar, magic, and golf, and agrees with Bruce Springsteen's assertion
that "It ain't no sin to be glad you're alive."
