A note from Bob Katzen, publisher of Beacon Hill Roll Call:
My guest on Jan. 24 on my WMEX 1510 AM Radio and online show will be Jordan Rich, beloved WBZ Boston radio personality, national voice-over artist, mobile disc jockey, emcee, philanthropist, all-around good guy and a mensch, to boot. He is also well-known for his support and work on behalf of many charities. Jordan will talk about his new book “ON AIR: My 50-Year Love Affair with Radio.”
Jordan currently hosts a podcast at www.jordanrich.com and is co-owner with Ken Carberry of Chart Productions, an iconic Boston-based audio-video production company. His book is available on Amazon. All proceeds from the sales of the book benefit Boston Children’s Hospital one of Jordan’s favorite charities.

Student climate advocates plan to virtually lobby state lawmakers this week in support of rules changes they say would help clear up clouds that linger over the legislative process.
The Massachusetts Youth Climate Coalition plans to hold a series of Zoom meetings on Tuesday and Wednesday, during which more than 140 students between the ages of 12 and 25 will ask lawmakers to support rules changes the coalition says will make it easier to track the progress of climate legislation.
