"What was Alan Freed famous for?" asked our editor Mark just before our editorial meeting.

Pause.

"You all need to do your research."

Mark was right. After all, World Have Your Say are heading to Cleveland, Ohio, next week to visit our partner station, WCPN, and Alan Freed was one of Cleveland's most influential residents.

Whilst in Cleveland, we will be doing two broadcasts:

Monday 10th October

We will then be broadcasting live from the Allen Theatre for the City Club Conference on Free Speech. We're on at the usual time (1700 GMT, 1300 local time) and we'd love to see you all there; pop over a couple hours early to get tickets.


Tuesday 11th October

We'll be live from the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (1700 GMT, 1300 local time)! They have a great Women Who Rock exhibition, that you might like to peruse.
