I am not sure where this would fit on the radio, though I found it entertaining, mostly because of the song. Connecticut's state song is Yankee Doodle. Aparently there are over 200 verses have been written for the tune! I would like to hear more about the origins of those 200 lyrics, and maybe less of the list of facts about the state in the beginning of the piece.
It could stand on its own only with an introduction of what the series, the State Song Songbook is all about. Perhaps this could be played on an anniversary of the song (it became the State song in 1978), or to introduce a guest from Connecticut on a talk show.
