“Jay Gould was absolutely iconic as the WOWO farm director for about 34 years and really put WOWO on the map as one of the premier farm stations in the country during those years,” reports Rob Winters (WOWO, Fort Wayne, IN). Gould was the creator of the original farm show back in the early ‘30s called The Little Red Barn. The show had a catchy musical theme that was originally performed live in the studio. Rob said, “We found an old recording of it and digitized it, and now I open my 5:00 a.m. report with it every weekday morning as well as my Saturday morning show called Midwest Ag Matters.” He added, “I still have people come up to me that remember the old days and can sing me the entire Little Red Barn theme. A comprehensive overview of WOWO’s history is covered by a local newspaper article that can be accessed online. More information about WOWO’s 90 years can be seen and heard here.

He still does farm market commentary for us every weekday morning on WOWO, which he has done since the ‘80s.
