Pirate Radio Daze Numero Uno….
OK, there’s no disputing that Mike and the whole Thomas Paine Universe is now the reigning Heavyweight Champion when it comes to “pirate radio.” And while transmitters, antenna towers, and ginormous megawatts, have been replaced with servers and networks, and bandwidth, still, the lure of the underground sound abounds. The mantle has been passed to Mike and his phenomenal crew, and they wear it well, and with honor.
But while Mike peddles truth and valuable intel, his so called “spiritual father” in the craft peddled virility medicine made from goat testicles. And who knows, goat testicles might prove to be the secret cure for Covid.
Check out the link below with its fascinating story about Radio X, the first Pirate Radio; bezillions of megawatts blasting across the Mexican border, much to the chagrin of the federal government broadcasting regulators. Thank God the “Jolly Roger” still flies. Enjoy!!!
