Interview with Larry Johnson

Yesterday, January 20th 2011, I sat down with Larry Johnson, founder of KZSC radio station in 1967, to talk to him about his experiences with radio and how radio "plays" into our lives in present times.

Larry started KRUZ, now KZSC, out of the basement of Stevenson 2 dorms, where he blasted music from a trash can as an antenna and egg cartons lining the walls as insulation.
He spoke about starting it up, some of the legal trouble, and the entire feel behind the era.
In the second part of the interview we focused on what it means to be a DJ in current times. Why is broadcasting a novelty?

Overall very successful and a great way to kick off the new show.
Interview is in the second half of the show.

Cheers!
