Before playlists, podcasts, and digital streams, radio was king-and the kids in the booth held the keys to the kingdom.
It's the spring of 1988 at Sam Houston State University. Between dodging yellow pollen storms, surviving The Hawk's brutal broadcast revisions, and steering clear of George Carlin's Seven Dirty Words on-air, super-senior Robin Sandberg is just trying to make it to graduation.
Armed with a 50,000-watt transmitter, a tape deck full of cassette-recorded hits, and a close-knit crew of fellow Radio-TV-Film majors, Robin navigates the chaotic final days of college life. From late-night classic rock shifts and Pancho's sopapilla runs to family hardships, questionable boyfriends, and sudden department bureaucracy threatening graduation, The Last DJ is an affectionate, humor-filled journey through an era when deejays didn't just play music-they defined pop culture.
Immerse yourself in a warm, witty, and unapologetically nostalgic journey back to 1988. Scroll up and click Buy Now (or Read Free on Kindle Unlimited) to tune in today!
