INTERVIEWS, ETC.
My first broadcast was from an old brick building on the Mississippi River. Since then I've produced a trio of radio shows (two on Radio K in Minneapolis, one on CJLO in Montreal), a podcast about Milwaukee creatives, radio mini-documentaries, and a handful of random interviews. The last thing I did was a mix of Milwaukee music from the Summer of 2015 featuring mini-interviews and songs from almost 40 artists in town.

RADIO / PODCAST
In 2005, as an undergrad at the University of Minnesota, I inherited The Beat Box Radio Show (Radio K), a Twin Cities hip-hop institution founded by BK-One in the 1990s, and co-hosted it for three years with Tramon Van Leer. We brought in local rapper/party boy Franz Diego and DJ Noam the Drummer, who mixed the show live. (Plus a rotating cast of characters.)
In 2012, while living in Montreal, a graduate school friend, Chris MacGregor, invited me to co-host his radio show The Feel Good Hit of the Summer (CJLO).
Also in 2012, I started a podcast about creatives from/living in Milwaukee, WI (my hometown), called The Milwaukee Auer. I conducted interviews during trips home and with Milwaukee expats living on the East Coast, and produced the show while living in Montreal.
I continued the show after moving back to Milwaukee in late 2013, but discounted it soon after because it wasn't generating any income.
