Al Montag was one of my first friends at Hofstra Radio, and is one of the best radio voices I've ever known.  Al and I discuss our days in the 1990s running the station and doing the morning show and, generally, having way too much fun.  Thank you for listening.

In 1990, Joe Romano, as a sophomore Hofstra student, interviewed WRHU General Manager Jeff Kraus for an assignment and Joe's been kind enough to share that interview with us now.  Those who knew Jeff will instantly recognize the intelligence and humor of the man, as well as the organized chaos of the radio station office.  Many thanks to Joe for sharing this interview and for all the context he shared in this recording. Thank you for listening.
