Boomer sits down with longtime FAN 960 program director Kelly
Kirch — better known as the Regina Rocket — to look back on the
rise, glory days and eventual death of Calgary’s beloved sports
radio station. From Mike Richards and Rob Kerr to Pinder, Rhett
Warrener, Pat Steinberg and the personalities that helped shape
the station, Boomer and Kelly share stories from behind the
scenes, revisit some of the biggest eras in FAN 960 history and
discuss what made the station such an important part of Calgary’s
sports community. Plus, Kelly opens up about the end of FAN 960,
the changing sports radio landscape and whether something like it
could ever exist again.
