Radio Survivor Podcast

Kanye West and Common had an epic freestyle rap battle on WHPK. That’s just one reason why the University of Chicago’s station is interesting and historic. Jennifer Waits takes us on a virtual tour of the studios, located in an actual working bell tower.
Jennifer, Eric and Paul also discuss how college radio has played a formative and supporting role in the development of hip-hop, by providing an open, often uncensored platform for new and emerging artists.
This UA-cam version of the podcast includes photos from Jennifer's tour.
Then we dig into a recent New York Times story that proclaims UA-cam as the new platform for pirate radio. Paul offers his cranky take on this proclamation. And, finally, we do some follow up on our last episode, which was about the documentary profile of Negativland's Don Joyce, "How Radio Isn't Done."
