Bob Culkeen’s passion for media began in a high school television studio, and he hasn’t left the studios since.

In this episode, Bob shares his childhood experience of losing his family home to a fire, and temporarily sheltering with nuns in a convent (an experience most men can’t say they’ve had). We also discuss the importance of educators, technological changes in the broadcast industry, and what happens behind-the-scenes at WTCI PBS.

Bob Culkeen is the President and CEO of WTCI Television, the PBS affiliate for Chattanooga. You can connect with him on LinkedIn (linkedin.com/in/bob-culkeen-4770b713) and learn more about the WTCI and the Ale Trail here: wtcitv.org/aletrail
