The Station That Built Us: The Final Days of 1069

For nearly 50 years, 106.9 The X has been a hands-on training ground for Fanshawe College students in broadcasting and journalism. As the station enters its final academic term, this episode looks inside the final months of 106.9 and examines why it is coming to an end, the role it played in student training, and what the future may hold for broadcast learning at Fanshawe. Featuring interviews with Fanshawe College dean Mary Harrison, current student Emily Slachter, and former student Alessio Donnini, now a reporter with CBC London, the episode explores the impact of a campus radio station that helped prepare generations of students for careers in media.
