Jonathan McNicol
Producer, The Colin McEnroe ShowJonathan started at Connecticut Public in 2010. He is as likely to produce a show on America’s jury system as he is a story on all the grossest parts of the human body. He’s as likely to host a podcast on minor league baseball as he is to cover a presidential debate almost by accident. His work has been heard nationally on NPR and locally on Connecticut Public Radio’s talk shows and news magazines. Jonathan can be reached at jmcnicol@ctpublic.org.
He lives in Hamden with his wife, two kids, and an idiot dog.
