Illinois Valley Alternative Podcast

Welcome to the Illinois Valley Podcast. This week we welcome author and NPR morning host Dan Klefstad to the show. Unfortunately some skype issues knocked Clayton out of the talk, but John and Dan had a good time discussing Dan’s most recent book, Fiona’s Guardians. Dan also talks about his time with WNIJ and gives us some behind the scenes insight on the radio newsroom. Be sure to check out the podcast adaptation of Dan’s book, which will be coming out on October 12th from the Artists' Ensemble Theater.  Check out Dan on social media - @danklefstad on Twitter and Instagram plus his website danklefstad.com   Please check out our sponsors for episode 99: Mr. Sparkle Auto Spa in Peru, IL - https://www.facebook.com/mrsparkleautospa/ Union Hall with Star Arcade in LaSalle, IL - Check out @unionhall01 on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and TikTok.
