Hello, friends! Jumpin' Joe here. Retro Radio on Saturday August 23 may be the last one.

Planning and hosting two shows has been challenging. My goal with the 70s version of Retro Radio was to give you the best tracks from WMMS and WIXY 1260. Quite frankly, I feel I haven't given you quality shows that you deserve.

You will hear repeats of Retro Radio until football season, and then we'll see what happens. I write this saying that I'm not completely closing the door on Retro Radio's future, but there could also be a possibility that this week's show will be the last. I will keep you posted. In the mean time, I hope you'll enjoy the action-packed hour I have planned for you this Saturday at 1pm on WJCU!
