Shawn Campbell Thursdays, 3PM

Shawn Campbell is president and founder of CHIRP. She is a true believer in radio—she loves it with all her heart. Before (and even while) starting CHIRP, she worked in commercial, public and community radio. While most recognize her as a sucker for a catchy three-minute pop song, people are often surprised to discover her love of 80s hip-hop.
