Hour 1: Women Made me Genderblind | 05-11-26

In hour 1, Walter Sterling navigates a nostalgic and eclectic series of topics ranging from personal upbringing to media history. Sterling begins by characterizing his childhood in New Jersey as a matriarchy, arguing that the social and domestic power held by women made him "gender blind" long before modern corporate initiatives. The program's centerpiece is a retrospective on the seismic shift of WABC from a music station to a talk format in 1982, featuring an interview with former program director Jay Clark about the cultural impact and business risks of that transition.
