UPDATED: WDEL 1150AM 1pm to 4pm / July 13th – 17th – Be there

UPDATE: I have to urge everyone to tune in and listen to Matt Denn this afternoon. The guy is funny as hell and very unguarded for a politician. He is also a sports nut (but hates hockey with a white hot passion) so he might be able to answer any Philly sports questions that are nagging at you provided they are not about hockey. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Normally at that time and channel, the airwaves are being polluted by the execrable Rick Jensen.

Monday (7/13) – Delaware Lt. Gov. Matt Denn Tuesday (7/14) – Tyler Nixon, Libertarian Party of Del. Wednesday (7/15) – Del. State Rep. Deborah Hudson, former State Senator Charlie Copeland & Republican Party of Delaware chairman Tom Ross Thursday (7/16) – Delaware Governor Jack Markell Friday (7/17) – Wilmington Mayor Jim Baker
