Folkin’ Around in Schwenksville
Ken’s guest is Jon Detweiler, second in command at the nation’s longest running outdoor music event, the Philadelphia Folk Festival, why it still draws thousands for the fifty-eighth consecutive year, and why it’s so much better than Woodstock. And rather than listener-submitted questions, Ken sets up shop in the middle of the Fest campground to interview a steady parade of random Festers.
