Rejuvenation Returns to Fridays on Different Radio, Black & Blues Returns With Live Shows

WXXI News | By Michael Black
Published July 10, 2020 at 1:00 PM EDT

After three months on hiatus, due to the COVID19 pandemic, Rejuvenation with Scott Wallace is back Friday nights at 6PM on Different Radio, WRUR and WITH. The three hour weekly program featuring R&B, soul, and funk has been a staple on Different Radio, and has been missed by our audience. In the interim, a program from our colleagues at WWOZ has been airing and we are grateful for their assistance to keep the music playing. 

Blacks & Blues will be returning to live programs. During the past few months, Doug Curry's three hour blues program has been airing rebroadcasts. Doug will be returning to the studio for live hosted programs. Be sure tune in each Friday night beginning at 6PM on Different Radio, WITH and WRUR.

I was born in Fairmont, West Virginia, and grew up mostly in and around the Rochester area. I got my radio start at WBKT at Brockport High school as a sophomore, and was its station manager in my senior year in high school. I had caught the radio & TV bug. While in high school, I started working for the local commercial station in town (WWBK/WJBT). While attending SUNY Brockport, I helped build WBSU-FM, and started as an intern for WXXI-TV. I started working for WXXI in the broadcast operations area, and eventually became an online television editor. In 1985, I took a position at WHYY in Philadelphia in their engineering department, working primarily as a video editor, but also provided audio support for TV productions and for some radio productions, including NPR's Fresh Air.
