Indiana native, Tom Castaldi, has a passion for regional history he's been sharing over the airwaves for more than two decades.
Every Monday, during Morning Edition and All Things Considered, you're invited to join him "On the Heritage Trail."
Castaldi lives by the idea that "to know your history is to build pride in your community, and pride building community is what builds towns and cities."
As WBOI's Julia Meek continues to take her monthly looks "Behind the Mic," she got Tom off the trail, and into the studio, to discuss how his "history habit" began, and the many directions it has taken him.
