The Racket
May 19, 2022 6:00 PM – 7:00 PM
Nighttime Rock
With johnny ghost
As I always say, "The Racket isn't a dedicated surf show, but it wants to be."
I'm Johnny Ghost, your weekly purveyor of retro-styled rock 'n' roll, surf, garage, blues, rockabilly, and other new songs for old souls, with dedicated throwbacks to the 20th century every 10th episode. Proving the kids still rock like they used to and making your grandparents dance, every Thursday evening 6-7 on HD2; be there or be square.
Surprise Oldies: Soda Pop Rock
I usually do oldies every 10th episode, but for episode 55 I've decided to do a surprise compilation of the lost hits of late '50s and early-mid '60s rock, pop, and doo-wop.
