Step into the untamed world of high-powered Mexican radio stations that forever changed the soundscape of North America. The Outlaw Airwaves tells the true story of the “Border Blasters” — renegade AM radio stations broadcasting across the U.S.-Mexico border in the mid-20th century with outlaw spirit, unregulated power, and revolutionary influence.
Hosted by music historian and storyteller *The Trout, this podcast dives into:
The wild history of DJs, evangelists, and pitchmen who became legends
How stations like XERF and XERB shaped rock, blues, gospel, and country music
The rise of larger-than-life personalities like *Wolfman Jack
The legal battles, political controversy, and cultural revolution they ignited
If you love stories of rebellion, innovation, and the raw power of radio, The Outlaw Airwaves is your backstage pass to a forgotten broadcasting frontier.
