Frank Stasio has hosted The State of Things, WUNC’s public affairs program, since 2006.
But his start in public radio came much earlier – in Ames, Iowa at WOI. His next stop: National Public Radio in Washington, D.C., where he eventually became a newscaster on All Things Considered.
On this edition, we learn more about his time in Washington, his launch of an alternative school, and what it’s like to be a national guest anchor on Talk of The Nation. Also, thirteen years in – what still gets him excited with State of Things?
