Jeanne also encouraged listeners to help KWKY staff its upcoming events. The first will be KWKY's State Fair Booth August 13-23. Jeanne is still in need of volunteers for the evening slots from 5-9pm as well as some afternoon times. The booth is located outside of the Bill Riley Stage. Anyone working 4 hours or more receives a free ticket into the fair. Tickets will be picked up through a luncheon with the volunteers.

Dale Ahlquist, President of the American Chesteron Society, joined Bill and Rich for their second interview. Dale explained that the American Cherston Society is working towards a revival of interest in the works of G.K. Chesterton. Chesterton was a early 20th Century author from England who traveled several times to America. His writing is prolific and diverse. He wrote about anything from fiction, poetry, plays, history, philosphy, thelogy, economy, and politics. He truly was a complete thinker, which makes him a great appologist for the Catholic Faith as Catholicism is 3-D and you have to be able to defend the Church at all levels.

The Chesterton Society is going to be having its Annual Chesterton Conference at Seattle Universty August 6-8. If you're interested in going you can go to: chesterton.org

There are also 2 Chesterton Societies in Iowa in Des Moines and Iowa City.


KRNT

Cheryl Whisenand also joined Bill and Rich for a few minutes at the end of the show. Cheryl and her brother participated in the Bill Riley Talent Search 33 years ago. They performed a soft shoe, and even ended up on KRNT. Her brother went on to become an actor and she went on to major in music at Central. Last weekend during the Talent Search at the Newton Speedway, she accompanied a young singer on piano. Cheryl still remembers the acts immediately following and before she and her brother performed their soft shoe 33 years ago.
