(July 9, 2025) – Throwback Brands’ Retro Pop Reunion program, hosted by radio veteran, Joe Cortese, announced today the addition of Audacy’s WMJX-FM Boston, MA to its radio affiliate network for Saturday nights. The program, known for being one of America’s longest-running weekly tributes to the ‘80s and ‘90s, began airing on the radio station this past weekend. After celebrating 40 years on-air in Boston in 2023, Cortese is thrilled for the opportunity to bring the show to his radio hometown and the audiences he has connected with so deeply for decades.
“It’s great to be playing on your home field every week!” said Joe Cortese. “I’ve been doing this for a long time, and it’s still exciting when you have an opportunity like this.”
Steve Salhany, VP Hot AC Programming at Audacy Boston and Hartford, commented on the show’s addition stating, “This show, along with Joe’s energy and credibility, is a perfect fit for WMJX. He is a longtime Boston personality, and we are excited for him to bring his unique dynamic to our station with this highly produced program.”
“Adding an iconic station like WMJX-FM isn’t just adding another affiliate,” said Ed Moloney, Director, Affiliate Syndication of Skyview Networks. “Joe began his career in Boston, so to bring Retro Pop Reunion to the city is a full circle moment!”
