As you know, our dear Vermont Public All the Traditions host, the beloved Robert Resnick, passed away in July at 72 years old. He hosted Vermont's treasured folk program for 29 years.  He will be sorely missed by those who loved him, including his loyal Vermont public All the Traditions listeners, musicians and his radio family.

Recently Vermont Public and NHPR partnered to fill the folk void created with Robert's passing by airing NHPR's Folk Show beginning with the 9/14/25 edition. There is no way one can fill Robert's shoes. With his own style he created a culture and quality of programming unique to Vermont Public listeners.  I am honored to share our music with listeners "over the river." I know it will take some time for the sting of Robert's passing to ease up.  Maybe the healing quality of music will help.
