Jeremy White: No Place Like Home

Jeremy White works evenings and weekends at the Beat 92.5 in
Montreal. He got his start in community radio at K103 in
Kahnawake in the Mohawk Territory just off the island of
Montreal. The radio station played a key role in the 1990 Oka
Crisis which exposed Canada's fractured relationship was its
First People. Jeremy shared some family stories from that era,
along with growing up with the station, and listening to the
incredible talent on CHOM, and Mix 96 like Cat Spencer, Terry
Dimonte, Kim Rossi, and Ted Bird.


In this episode, Jeremy opens up and life in Kahnawake, starting
at age 15 at K-103, and then getting hired by Leo D'Estrella at
Q92 which evolved into the Beat. We also discuss Jeremy's online
presence and his interviews with some prominent music stars like
John Oates, David Guetta, and Rob Halford. He also talks a bout
his time in Edmonton at Virgin 104.9 which he readily admits was
not his favourite move. In fact, moving overall seems overrated
these days unless it's to Z100 or something in a large
metropolis. We also flashed back to Ted Bird's episode and
you can hear that here in its entirety.
