Through The Static
The show where we play a little bit of everything! From beloved classics to cult classics, songs I’ve loved for years, or songs I’ve just discovered, every week I bring in my records and take you through the static to sonic delights and peculiarities alike.
Through The Static is hosted by Jordan Kalist and airs on CKMS-FM on Wednesday from 9:00pm to 10:00pm with a #Replay on Saturday from 11:00am to Noon.
