In this episode of The Kingstonian Podcast, we explore the rich history of radio broadcasting through the lens of a true aficionado. While we've explored various facets of local radio on this podcast, today's story is distinctive. Meet Steve Cogan, a lifelong devotee of radio journalism whose retirement project has become a tribute to the early days of radio in Kingston, Ontario.
Steve's journey through the waves of radio began in his youth, where he discovered his passion for journalism. However, it's his retirement endeavor, the Kingston Radio Rewind Facebook Page, that captures our attention. Through meticulous curation of memorabilia and storytelling, Steve brings to life the vibrant history of CKWS and CKLC, two iconic radio stations that once vied for the ears of Kingston residents during the fifties and sixties. While rooted in Kingston's history, Steve's narratives resonate with radio enthusiasts far and wide, transcending geographical boundaries.
