Congratulations to Ms. Marjon for her "Honorable Mention" honor in the Promotional Announcement category in the 2022 Michigan Student Broadcast Awards!

Thursday on Acoustic Alternatives with John Bommarito on 89.3 WHFR.FM, John will be chatting with former Michigan, now Nashville resident Katie Pederson about her EXCELLENT new album Limitless and giving you a chance to win a pair of tickets to the show at The Ark! The show starts at 10 AM.

Special thanks to this week's WHFR Journal special guests Elizabeth Hall-Knight with HFC's Sustainable HFC environmental organization and Dearborn Mayor Abdullah Hammoud for sharing their time and expertise on our weekly local news and views show, The WHFR Journal. The Journal airs Fridays between 1and 2 pm. We are grateful for the time and expertise of our guests every week, and Radiothon week especially. Thank you!

WHFR is celebrating Radiothon 2022 this week. We've got two more days of our annual on-air pledge drive, so if you have not yet made your contribution, please do so! Thanks to all who celebrated live local music at Trinity House last evening for the WHFR benefit concert with Jo Serrapere and the Lafawndas. They were magnificent! Special thanks to Jo and her band, Trinity House, Bill Keith, and John Bommarito for making this night a success. Look for pictures of the event coming to our gallery soon. Happy Radiothon!

Just in time for Radiothon, Lady Champagne returns to the air on Tuesday, April 5th, with The Creole Blues Cafe!
Tune in weekly Tuesdays from 4:00 - 6:00pm!

Jack Benny absolutely "killed" (in a manner of speaking) during his era. Today it is by far my most popular comedy show. I will be featuring a rare REHEARSAL radio show on the upcoming Radio Vault installment. You'll hear how strange the show is without the music and without the audience. (but the sound effects man was working!).

Meantime, here is an oddball Benny TELEVISION show from 1959. It features Jack Webb. The Lux Soap and Stripe Toothpaste commercials are a hoot. If you are familiar with the cop show Dragnet, you’ll get some of the jokes. Enjoy!

Join us Thursday, April 7th at Trinity House in Livonia (38840 W. Six Mile, Livonia, MI) during Radiothon week for a special benefit concert with Jo Serrapere and Friends.

Dave has the day off... tune in next week!

Host David Twichell will be the guest on March 7 at 2 PM. Last month’s guest, Tony Sivalelli, will be the guest host. Twichell will discuss his own personal close encounter UFO sighting as well as the many other paranormal encounters he has experienced in his life that led him to developing We Are Not Alone for WHFR radio.

The WHFR Journal - Special Edition

Due to the recent inclement weather, WHFR presents a special edition of the WHFR Journal, Tuesday morning, February 22 at 9am. As part of Henry Ford College and WHFR's celebration of Black History Month we present “The History of the Tuskegee Airmen: Their Contributions to the Military and Society”. The speaker will be Retired Major William Burnett, the founder and president of the Macon-Thomas West Bloomfield Chapter of Tuskegee Airmen. The Tuskegee Airmen are America’s first Black pilots and airmen who served in the U.S. Armed Forces, during World War II. Their strength of character, courage, and ability to triumph over adversity serves as a means to inspire others to rise above the obstacles in their own lives and achieve their goals. Before the Tuskegee Airmen, no African-American had ever been a U.S. military pilot. Join us this week at this special time, Tuesday morning at 9, and at our usual time of Friday, 1pm for the WHFR Journal at 89.3FM and here at whfr.fm.
