Michael Feldman (born March 9, 1949)[1] is the host of Michael Feldman's Whad'Ya Know?, a radio program distributed by Public Radio International. His announcer, Jim Packard, refers to him as "The Sage of Wisconsin." He has given himself the title of "Producer Internationale," and also refers to Public Radio International on-air as "The International House of Radio."
Raised in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Feldman graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Madison with a degree in English in 1970. He worked as a teacher at Malcolm Shabazz Alternative High School in Madison, Wisconsin, before finding work at radio station WORT. Soon after, he worked as a cab driver before coming back to broadcasting, first at Wisconsin Public Radio, then at WGN. He was fired from WGN in 1984, which sent him back to Public Radio. He started his show, Michael Feldman's Whad'Ya Know?, in 1985. He is also the author of several books, some based on the show.
Feldman is married, with two daughters, and lives in the Madison area, where the show is usually staged.
