AM 1400 KCOW radio is Alliance, Nebraska’s flagship radio station, which went on air in February of 1949. Fast forward twenty years with amazing radio personalities to 1979 you would hear a gentleman by the name of Kent “Music Man” Theesen. KCOW helped pave the way for Theesen’s entertainment career of radio, TV, film, and acting. Thirty-nine years later Theesen decided to write a book about his memories interviewing radio disc jockey Wolfman Jack, and meeting Al Stewart, Charley Pride, Willie Nelson, and Yogi Berra to name a few.

KCOW Morning Show Host Jason Wentworth interviewed Theesen live on-air earlier this week about his journey, you can hear that audio below.
