It’s been a flurry of college radio conferences for me lately and my third and final event for the fall was the UCRN conference held at Pomona College’s radio station KSPC last Saturday. You can read all about it in my recap from earlier this week. Also, on this week’s Radio Survivor Podcast, I talk […]
I’ve been busy with so many college radio events lately, most recently at CMJ’s first College Day on Tour in Portland, Oregon on Saturday. I recapped the day in a post yesterday and Paul Riismandel and I also chatted about it on this week’s Radio Survivor Podcast (#23!) at around one hour and 18 minutes […]
I’m still thinking back fondly on my trip to Minneapolis and provided a run-down of the College Broadcasters Inc. (CBI) conference in this week’s Radio Survivor Podcast. As a bonus, I also shared some highlights from my visit to college radio station KUOM (aka Radio K), including audio tidbits from my tour through the record […]
I had a great time at the College Broadcasters Inc. (CBI) conference in Minneapolis last week and was glad to have had the opportunity to speak on two different panels about college radio history and culture. (more…)
I’m immersed in the College Broadcasters Inc. (CBI) conference today and hope that some of you caught my two presentations yesterday on college radio history and culture. As I prepared for these presentations, I spent some time reflecting back on the more than 90 radio station visits that I’ve embarked on since 2008. Looking through […]

Enjoy it before it’s #RIP.” SiriusXM will still continue programming its other […]
I hope that you took the opportunity to celebrate College Radio Day last Friday. Did you check out a new station? Do something special at your own station? We’d love to hear your stories, so please feel free to comment on this post. This week’s edition of College Radio Watch will be brief, with just […]
Today is the 5th annual College Radio Day, a day set aside to celebrate the amazing culture of college radio. As Radio Survivor readers know, I celebrate college radio on a daily basis, so College Radio Day is kind of like the icing on the cake. In honor of College Radio Day, here are my […]
The CMJ Music Marathon takes place in New York City in a few weeks and as I read about the conference and shows, I get a bit nostalgic, as I think back to my trips to CMJ over the years. My very first trip to New York was for a CMJ Music Marathon in 1987. […]
This week a few college radio groups got some unwelcome news. As I reported yesterday, two college radio stations (online stations WLOY at Loyola University and WJHU at Johns Hopkins University) competing for a new low power FM (LPFM) license in Baltimore learned that they most likely won’t be winning a license. We also got […]
