What a sad time for local radio.
Amen. The vast majority of my favorite music artists came to me through WNKU. When that station launched, it changed my life and by extension the lives of many of my friends. Really a shame.
Hey, is WAIF still on the air? This could be an opening for them or another independent...
Down here we have a public radio at 89.7 where, funny enough, Sheila Rue & Craig Kopp and some others from the old WNKU have been for years, and an independent at 88.5 and the independent is more like WNKU than the station with the WNKU alumni.
If you want to stream either to check them out 89.7 is WUSF and 88.5 is WMNF. I think you will find plenty to like with both, particularly WMNF. They do some political talk in the morning that isn't that good but afternoon and evening usually good music. Particularly good is the Rhythm Revival show with Reverend Billy C Wirtz on Friday afternoons. Cheers mate!
JOHN ROBERTS: From time to time in the years to come, I hope you will be treated unfairly so that you will come to know the value of justice... I wish you bad luck, again, from time to time so that you will be conscious of the role of chance in life and understand that your success is not completely deserved and that the failure of others is not completely deserved either.
