WEEKDAYS 3-7P & THE HISTORY OF ALTERNATIVE: SUNDAY 8-Noon

About The Show

Thanks for stumbling upon this page. Brian Phillips IS my real name. I’ve been here at WKQX since 2014.

“Licensed To Ill” was the first album I wore out on a cassette Walkman. I’m still in a healthy relationship with my 160gb iPod classic!

I run on Dunkin’, will run to a local bar for a Daisy Cutter, yet have a strange disdain for the Oxford Comma (but not the Vampire Weekend song).

311, Depeche Mode and Beastie Boys are some of my all time favs. Hearing The Smiths on the radio in the 80s inspired my life/career ambitions. Thanks Morrissey.

Let’s hang every Sunday morning for the History Of Alternative.
