History As KFAN Radio Host
Hartman's previous job was at KFAN, headquartered in St. Louis Park, Minnesota. His show aired every weekday from 2-4:00 PM. Frequent contributors to Chad's show included Mark Rosen, Paul Charchian, Bob McNaney, Belinda Jensen, Cities 97's Brian Oake, KTLK-FM's Brian Lambert, Paul Molitor, Terry Ryan, fictional neighbor Saul Lefkowitz, and his show's producer Darren (Doogie) Wolfson.
Hartman interviewed so many guests on his show, he earned the nickname "The Barbara Walters of the Fan."
Hartman was terminated by KFAN management along Wolfson in January 2009. He was the longest-tenured remaining member of KFANs predecessor - WDGY.
Hartman was the primary radio voice for the Minnesota Timberwolves from 1997 to 2006.

Famous quotes containing the words history, radio and/or host:
“There is a constant in the average American imagination and taste, for which the past must be preserved and celebrated in full-scale authentic copy; a philosophy of immortality as duplication. It dominates the relation with the self, with the past, not infrequently with the present, always with History and, even, with the European tradition.”
—Umberto Eco (b. 1932)
“Having a thirteen-year-old in the family is like having a general-admission ticket to the movies, radio and TV. You get to understand that the glittering new arts of our civilization are directed to the teen-agers, and by their suffrage they stand or fall.”
—Max Lerner (b. 1902)
“When you are invited by someone to a wedding banquet, do not sit down at the place of honor, in case someone more distinguished than you has been invited by your host...But when you are invited, go and sit down at the lowest place, so that when your host comes, he may say to you, Friend, move up higher’; then you will be honored in the presence of all who sit at the table with you.”
—Bible: New Testament, Luke 14:8,10.
