Our traditional Sunday before Christmas Program is set! Tune in to 89.5 at 6pm as local and regional artists share their holiday greetings with both original and well-known seasonal songs. And all night, great Americana Christmas music. There's holiday Bluegrass tunes, Acoustic Christmas tracks, and a solid hour of pure instrumentals. And, Jeff Sander, our host for Lost in the Shuffle brings you forgotten Christmas classics. It's our musical gift to you. HAPPY HOLIDAYS from everyone at WHRO.

Barry Graham used to arrive at WHRO with a briefcase full of papers and lesson plans. For 32 years he taught US and Virginia Government in the Virginia Beach Public Schools. While teaching was always his first love, radio was a close second. While attending Old Dominion, Barry was program director at WODU, the college radio station. After graduating, he came to WHRO as an overnight announcer. Originally intending to stay on only while completing graduate school, he was soon hooked on Public Radio and today is the senior announcer on WHRV. In 2001, Barry earned his Ph.D in Urban Studies by writing a history of WHRO and analyzing its impact upon local education, policy and cultural arts organizations.
