Aspen Public Radio adds a new voice, welcoming award-winning broadcast journalist Sage Smiley

Posted

Aspen Public Radio is pleased to announce the arrival of Sage Smiley as the station’s new host of “All Things Considered,” following the June 2025 promotion of Halle Zander to news director. When not on the air, Smiley will be supporting Aspen Public Radio’s three full-time reporters and three regularly contributing journalists as an associate editor and enterprising reporter in the newsroom.
