On the latest Memory Jogger podcast, Jason and Wyatt revisit their time working in radio during the mid to late '90s. If you listened to MJ 10: First Jobs episode, you'll remember that we worked together for about a year after high school at WCPA-AM & WQYX-FM in Clearfield, PA. Wyatt then worked part time at WINU-AM in Highland, IL after joining the Air Force. Jason went on to obtain a radio broadcasting degree at Toccoa Falls College where he worked, and even managed for a time, the student radio station WTXR-FM in Toccoa, GA.
Some of our fondest memories are working in radio and probably the main reason we began podcasting in the first place. We go a little deeper into our time together at WCPA/WQYX and also talk individually about our experiences in radio after that time. You'll even hear some clips from some of our on-air work during the podcast!
We hope you'll enjoy listening and will leave any comments to our show notes on Rediscoverthe80s.com or tweet us @RD80s or @infamouswb. You can also watch our recording session on the RD80s YouTube channel.
