Every day, you're flooded with headlines, posts and hot takes. How do you know what to trust?

At Radio Chesapeake, we believe media should do more than report. It should empower. That's why we support local journalists, like Sophia Da Silva, Jim Brady, Shane Walker, and Val Cavalheri, who dig deeper and add context to the stories shaping the Mid-Shore. It's also why we train interns to value accuracy, curiosity and integrity in everything they produce.

A community that thinks critically is a stronger community, and it starts with trusted local voices. Help us build it during our Membership Drive. Donate at https://www.whcp.org/donate

Stonewall Jackson was born in North Carolina in 1932. Stonewall is not a nickname; he was named after Confederate General Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson. After hearing Jackson's demo tape, Wesley Rose of Acuff-Rose Music, arranged for Jackson to audition for the Grand Ole Opry. Jackson became the first artist to join the Grand Ole Opry before obtaining a record contract.
On the next Rockin' Randall Classic Country Call-In Request Show, Stonewall Jackson will be in the spotlight, as our featured artist of the day. I hope you can join me Saturday morning from 6-9 for Classic Country by request and the very best of
Stonewall Jackson on 91.7 WHCP-Radio Chesapeake.
