2009 BEST OF THE INDY

Richard Randall Show, KVOR-AM 740 (593-2700, kvor.com)

Thanks to the readers of the Colorado Springs Independent for giving me this honor. Richard

Though he's hosted a talk radio show for more than 10 years, and reported TV news before that, you might not know that Richard Randall is a history buff. Off air, in fact, he's a documentary filmmaker who's chronicled the story of Mississippi Delta gospel music in Soul of the Delta, and now is working on a film about recipients of the Congressional Medal of Honor. "There are so many stories that haven't been told," he says. His radio show, a repeat Best Of winner, tends to focus more on politics with a conservative bent, but Randall says he always welcomes callers with diverging viewpoints. "That's the beauty of talk radio." — AL
