Ep 263 - 10 More Songs that Defined College Radio and James Hicks

Send us Fan Mail Episode 263 of Nerdery & Murdery is live. On the Nerdery side, Zig returns with another installment of songs that helped define the college radio experience. From alternative rock and post-punk to underground favorites and influential artists that helped shape the sound of a generation, we explore ten tracks that became staples of dorm rooms, campus stations, and late-night radio discoveries. On the Murdery side, our A–Z Across America series continues as we head to Maine and the case of James Hicks. What began as the disappearance of a young mother in 1977 slowly evolved into something far more disturbing. Years later, another woman vanished. Then another. For decades, investigators struggled to prove what many suspected until an arrest hundreds of miles away finally unlocked the truth behind one of Maine's most haunting serial murder investigations. The soundtrack of college radio on one side. A decades-long mystery of missing women and buried secrets on the other. Just another week of the Nerd and the Murd. Support the show
