Rev. Beidenharn and Ishmell Edwards Happy Hour guests

Well folks, it’s almost time for another hour of “good news” on Swanee’s Good News Happy Hour, on WKRA 1110 AM at 2 p.m. this Thursday and repeated again at 10 a.m. on Saturday mornings.

This week my guest lineup will include Rev. Jim Beidenharn of Byhalia, telling us about what’s happening at the Methodist church in Byhalia and our state Senator Bill Stone will be informing us what’s going on by our state law makers.

Last week, Ishmell Edwards, vice-president of Rust, was our guest to tell us the news that is happening at Rust College. This is the last week that I will be on the 2 o’clock slot on Thursdays. (I will continue to have my weekly show repeated on Saturdays at 10 a.m.)

Beginning May 15, I will begin to broadcast my weekly happy hour at 3-4 p.m. This begins my introduction to the World Wide Web. Yes! In the very near future I will begin to broadcast all over the world. This way the entire planet will be able to begin to know how wonderful folks are here in Marshall County.

I am especially thankful that our men and women who are serving in the armed forces all over the world will be able to tune in to us via computer. It’s amazing how great the world’s inventions really are.Swanee’s Good News Happy Hour
