Marty Severson served in Vietnam. When he returned, he got no hero's welcome.
Using his learned broadcasting skills, he quickly became a well-known radio disc jockey in La Crosse WI.

His radio name has stuck to him for decades, (revealed in this episode) and so has the prank he pulled on a whole city back in 1986. A WHOLE CITY!

Severson has it right when he talks about theater of the mind, and how we all crave story telling to relate, release and remember the past. What does a chicken have to do with any of this?

Hear the story of how we met when I was a teen, how he influenced my passion for radio and our shared passion in spreading laughter where ever we go.

You can find Severson at the Moon Tunes events in La Crosse WI. He's the emcee for live music in the warmer months along the Mississippi River, in Riverside Park.
