Susi Elkins is WKAR's Director of Broadcasting.

WKAR Director of Broadcasting Susi Elkins explains some changes being made to WKAR's radio programming schedule.

As you may have heard on WKAR Radio, changes are coming to our program line up. After tomorrow, Current State goes on hiatus for a couple weeks before returning as a weekend-only show in January.

Mark Bashore will remain as Current State host, but will also be assuming local hosting duties on All Things Considered every weekday.

We talk with WKAR Director of Broadcasting Susi Elkins about the changes.
