Old Friends, and Why Radio Isn't Dead

A forgotten nightstand drawer sends Michael Crose down a rabbit hole of business cards from the eighties, memories of people long gone, and a burning question: whatever happened to Wyatt Cox? Turns out Wyatt is alive, well, and running a tiny radio station in Ely, Nevada — so far from civilization that a trip to Walmart is an hour-long expedition. When that station went dark for a few days due to a mechanical failure, locals were driving to the building in a panic. That's not a dead medium, folks. That's community. Michael also takes us back to the glorious chaos of getting a Switch 56 line installed at his house, convincing the phone company he was laundering money for a drug cartel, and the legendary engineer known only as Blinky. It's a love letter to radio, old friends, and the magical weirdness of a life spent behind a microphone.#TheDailyGrateful #MichaelCrose #Radio #OldFriends #Podcasting #RadioHistory #LocalRadio #Storytelling #Nostalgia #BehindTheMic
