Wanna (Virtually) Go Back To 1976?


Today is of course, April Fool's Day. And today from 6am-6pm EDT/3am-3pm PDT, WMOH 1450 AM, a talk radio station out of Hamilton, OH (Cincinnati area) turns back the clock to April 1, 1976. Reuniting their air staff of that year and playing 1976 music, 1976 commercials and news of the day. Should be interesting. Go to their website to tune in and enjoy!

"No one had trademarked the word," said Pepsi spokesbastard Phil Clabbard, "so we took the opportunity to secure our brand property.
