Scott Allen is a radio personality (of sorts) in the Lehigh Valley as he volunteers to host the National Public Radio show All Things Considered Mondays, 4:00 to 6:00 p.m. on WDIY (88.1 FM Allentown). He began doing this last winter. He comes in on the breaks with news, traffic, weather, time and call letters. He is also the control board engineer which means he plays the commercials at the designated times, accesses the feed from Public Radio Capital News (out of Harrisburg for PA State news), and reconnects the show to the NPR Satellite to resume All Things Considered which originates nationally in Washington DC. If you'd like to hear Scott, the show is broadcast in streaming live audio on the web. Just open your web browser to WDIY.org and click on "listen" at the top. All the time, everywhere! "I've always listened to NPR News and like their format," Allen says. "This was a small way to give back to a project that has given me so much over the years. I learned alot of new things and after 10 months I feel more at ease at the microphone in the studio."
The Rev. T. Scott Allen is priest in charge at St. Andrew's Allentown/Bethlehem and a member of the Standing Committee of the Diocese of Bethlehem.
