GIVING THANKS HOST JOHN BIRGE produced his first Thanksgiving Day special in 1985 when working as the morning host at WGUC in Cincinnati. The program grew to become an annual tradition, which he brought with him when he came to American Public Media in 1997. Giving Thanks now airs on public radio stations nationwide on Thanksgiving Day. John Birge also hosts the daily morning drive-time show on American Public Media's classical music network.
