After substituting on The Celtic Show a few times, Jon Kiger is delighted to have assumed regular hosting duties starting in the summer of 2013, while longterm host John C. Falstaff takes a break. Jenny and Dave also host from time to time. The Celtic Show now has a Facebook page! |

Jon Kiger first sat behind a radio station control board at the tender age of 14 at WPEA the on campus radio station of Phillips Exeter Academy in Exeter, NH. During his time in boarding school he hosted hundreds of radio shows and eventually earned a spot as General Manager of the station. Apart from a few shows related to alumni reunions on campus, he was off the air for the better part of thirty years. |
As the long running host of The Celtic Show on WRFG Atlanta, John C. Falstaff is highly entertaining. He possesses an encyclopedic knowledge of the music and the musicians, from legendary figures of the past to the current ones just making their mark. He gives enough commentary to provide meaningful background, but the focus is on the music, and there is lots of it, well-paced. – Jim Alexander, Chair, Irish Music Traditions (Atlanta Branch of CCE) |

I congratulate WRFG Atlanta on promoting appreciation of the rich Celtic
heritage of Georgia and the South East. Anyone with Scots-Irish, Irish,
Scottish, Welsh, Manx or Cornish family roots, or with interests in knowing more
about the diversity of British and Irish folk music, will particularly enjoy
listening to John C. Falstaff's show.
