Larry Lujack didn't beg for your attention—he bent the dial toward him. Vinny Vinyl breaks down the craft behind the "Superjock": timing, stance, and ritual that turned Top 40 swagger into legend, plus the crews who kept the signal honest. No clips, just story. Same signal—new legend.

There are DJs—and then there are gravitational forces. In this episode, Vinny Vinyl explores how Larry Lujack transformed Top 40 radio with timing, dry wit, and a stance that made millions feel like the only listener. We unpack the craft beneath the swagger—recurring bits, precision pacing, and the quiet brilliance of the people behind the glass who kept it effortless.

Along the way, Vinny previews future voices on Retro Waves: Maggie Mercury (the archivist with receipts), Rusty Fader (the board-op philosopher), and Shep Golden (the calm witness inspired by WCFL engineer Sheldon Post).

No SFX. No music. Just story, memory, and the art of the Superjock.
