He talks about how he makes decisions to air bands' music on the show; why he prefers CDs; his relationship to the Smashing Pumpkins; why Lou Reed was the most exciting on-air interview he's ever done; what he thinks of digital vs vinyl; his first radio job in WDEK in DeKalb, Illinois; how WXRT DJs can choose their own music; how he developed his business, Rank Entertainment; what makes WXRT an atypical music station and special place to work, and more.
