Jack welcomes Noelle Dick, the Director of Corporate Development at KET (Kentucky Educational Television). She describes this role as a “homecoming,” noting that her first-ever internship was in KET’s Development office back in 1989–1991. The other hat she wears, is that of wife to Lexington newscaster and personality, Sam Dick. She updates Jack and his listeners on the current state of public broadcasting in the face of loss of millions in funding from the federal government.
