Zeeto first started doing radio on WPKN early in 1973. A little later in the 70s, he managed the Carriage House Coffee House bringing “A-List” musicians to Fairfield County. Just a few examples are Dave Van Ronk, Tom Paxton, Utah Phillips, Pierre Bensusan, a very young Bela Fleck [with Tasty Licks], Bill Staines, and Kate Wolf. Many of these artists’ concerts were played over PKN, as well as being interviewed live. When Zeeto left the Carriage House, he created a science show for kids called "Zeeto the Bubbleman". Among the highlights were opening for Shari Lewis; performing on Family Day of the Dr. Seuss exhibit at the Baltimore Museum of Arts; and having Gordon Duncan create his song "Zeeto the Bubbleman". He then taught radio, TV and film at Staples High School. He was advisor to WWPT the student radio station, which was honored to win many national awards (including Best High School Radio Station in the country), and Zeeto was twice awarded the nation's outstanding faculty advisor. Through it all, community radio has been Zeeto’s passion. His show (every other Tuesday from Noon to 3:00) and this podcast, could be loosely described as Americana. It will feature a mix of some of the latest releases and old favorites.© 2026 Mike Zito, WPKN Music

    In Zeeto’s third hour on May 19, 2026 there’s a tribute to Hollywood, acting and moviemaking, plus an inspirational (for me certainly) ending from Angelique Kidjo with the Soweto Gospel Chorus.

    Zeeto on WPKN - Tuesday, 5/19/26 Hour 2
    May 19 2026

    Zeeto’s middle hour on May 19, 2026 is a concert of Dave Mason’s from 1986 in Minneapolis, MN. I’ve been thinking a lot about Dave Mason since his passing last April 19. I chose this concert because I liked the stripped down feel of it (just Dave and Jim Krueger). Plus, their setlist included a number of songs that surprised me.
