Steve Bertrand: radio rarity

Steve Bertrand has only worked at WGN Radio his entire career (from the mid-1980s), starting as an intern and currently as a news anchor. For a couple of years, he hosted the Meet the Writers podcast for Barnes & Noble, and interviewed all kinds of authors such as Stephen King, Dan Brown, Nora Roberts, Dennis Leary, and Amy Tan; he talks about what Chris Farley was like at Marquette University (they both went there); his experience with the Chicago Bears show and the 1985 Bears; fun times at WGN (he's worked with Roy Leonard, Kathy and Judy, Garry Meier, John Williams, Spike O'Dell, and Jonathan Brandmeier); how news has changed, and more.
