A recent study by Chapman University asked Americans about their greatest fears. Their #1 response – outpacing heights, snakes, and needles – was public speaking.
On this latest trek On the Road, we meet a gentleman who has made America’s greatest fear his vocation! He gets behind a microphone each day & communicates with tens of thousands of radio listeners – and, in so doing, has the chance to share his deeply held faith with listening friends.
Dave Clutter is a beloved on air personality at 98.5 KTIS in Minnesota’s Twin Cities, where he also serves as Assistant Program Director. His decades’ long media career has taken him from small towns across the Upper Midwest to the TV news desk at KARE 11 in Minneapolis, and now to a home on the airwaves of KTIS.
