About this episode
If you listened to radio in the 90s and early 2000s, and were into rock music, 89x was a regular stop on the dial.
The blast of nostalgia of them coming back after a time as a country radio FM station on the air this week felt good as a pair of Millenials (one, an elder, on the cusp of Gen X).
So we get into our favorite memories, local Detroit bands they played - from those more well known like Sponge and the veritable one-hit wonders, Charm Farm. 89x was always a platform for local music, seemingly to play more than other spots.
Plus, the DJs, the Canadian Exports. All of it. And our first CDs we ever bought.
Plus - Jer and Devon both went to the new Alo and have thoughts, plus the new Lunch at Olin in Downtown Detroit in our regular "Where we've been" segment, highlighting places we've actually tried or visited.
