Polka Party on WRYM 840 AM

[MarcB]

There was an article in The New Britain Herald today about the hosts of Polka Party on WRYM AM 840. The show has been hosted by John Gladyz and his wife ever since Jeff Banas (sp?) stepped down from hosting duties after the passing of long-time Polka Party Host John Jeski a few years ago.

Thanks for the article, Marc.

I've seen & heard the live show when I've visited the Polish Nat'l Home on Sundays.

Any Radio enthusiast should do the same.

You don't see too many live Radio shows anymore.

Besides, the Polish food & drink are great.

I used to be the engineer for "Connecticut Stash" who did a weekly Polka show on the former 1440WBIS/Bristol.

Those 33 1/3 Polka LP's were heavy! - they seemed to weigh @least a 1/4 of a pound!

John has been a very good friend of mine for years. He loves doing the show. we have talked a few time about bringing in a live polka band one of these days for a summer party broadcast.
