  • A lost horse, Honor Flight and Sam Walton: My wife has questions!
    In June of 1996 I brought the Holstein & Co. Morning Show to Illinois. That was 25 years ago this month.  Last June, after the show abruptly ended after 24 years, my wife Deb told me she wanted to interview me. I was intrigued — so we headed to my makeshift studio, I clicked record and away she went.

    Recently I listened to that one-year-old interview and it was a fun walk down memory lane. So here it is — from June 2020, Deb interviews Steve.

  • Pants or no pants with Aaron Bennett

    Starting in 2006 Aaron Bennett could be found on WCIA-TV as a sports reporter, sports anchor, and eventually a news anchor. In 2018 Aaron left television for a position at Gies College of Business at the University of Illinois.

    In this episode Aaron and I talk about loyal small town sports fans, having a "normal" schedule, why a good sportscast is more than just scores and highlights, and how an idea for a news story goes from concept to air.

  • Hold my juice box and returning to Camp Drake with Jared White

    There’s some special about seeing a kid in a scouting uniform. Today it seems kids in sports uniforms are more common, but scouting is alive and well and has evolved to give kids a reason to show up and stay interested. And now that COVID infections have dropped, scout camping is back... so I thought I’d give Jared White with the Prairielands Council a buzz.
