About this podcast
Classic Country Corner is a radio show that airs every Saturday Morning at 8 on 98.7 WVMO, a 100 watt community radio station in Monona, Wisconsin. The show is a mix of vinyl and digital music. Dollar bins, estate sales, and thrift stores are the bedrock of the show’s musical library.
Our Motto
On Classic Country Corner, we play Classic Country Music from the likes of Waylon, Willie, Johnny, Dolly, Tammy, and Merle. Plus some one-hit wonders and songs that should’ve been hits.
