I attended college in northeastern Vermont from 1977-1981. One of the things I enjoyed was being a part of the college's radio station, WWLR-FM, then only ten watts (now it's broadcasting at 3,000 watts, an increase that happened shortly after I graduated). I was not new to the world of radio, however. My radio "career" started at age 15 when I started providing weekend weather forecasts on my hometown station in New Bedford, Massachusetts, 1420-AM, WBSM, something I did faithfully until I started college in September of 1977. One of my dearest "lifer friends," Bob Gilmore, is also a radiophile. You can read about him in my first book, The Extra Mile. Recently, he came across a radio air check of one of my Saturday afternoon radio shows on WWLR-FM. It's from October of 1980, during my senior year at Lyndon State College. Yes, that's OVER 40 years ago! Because it's Open Line Friday, I've decided to go rogue and share a "scoped*" version of my first hour of my shift, a radio program I called The Sound Connection. It naturally brought back a ton of memories for me. It's my hope you'll, at the very least, smile when you listen in. I'd love to know what you think. Drop me an email, voice mail, or leave a comment below. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/andrebernier/support
