Goodbye WBCN



















I was shocked to hear this morning that WBCN is shutting down. Mix98.5 will take over that spot on the dial, and an All-Sports station will start up at the 98.5 frequency. 'BCN was supposedly the inspiration for the movie FM, which was the
inspiration for WKRP, so it's the station that more or less set the
standard for FM radio lore in American culture. I hadn't listened in
years... pretty much ever since Charles retired, but still... what a
shock.
