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:
“All history attests that man has subjected woman to his will, used her as a means to promote his selfish gratification, to minister to his sensual pleasures, to be instrumental in promoting his comfort; but never has he desired to elevate her to that rank she was created to fill. He has done all he could to debase and enslave her mind; and now he looks triumphantly on the ruin he has wrought, and say, the being he has thus deeply injured is his inferior.”
—Sarah M. Grimke (1792–1873)
“from above, thin squeaks of radio static,
The captured fume of space foams in our ears—”
—Hart Crane (1899–1932)
“Think of the earth as a living organism that is being attacked by billions of bacteria whose numbers double every forty years. Either the host dies, or the virus dies, or both die.”
—Gore Vidal (b. 1925)
