It' a Wednesday morning. Ionia escaped the REALLY bad weather that went south of us including tornadoes and other damage that rolled through Michigan last night. WION put the tornado WATCH on the air instantly. It's what we do. We've done the BEST we can for nearly 20 years to cover weather for anyone who has the "radio" as their companion and may not have access to the 'net whether […]
On this Tuesday, we've got great weather...making us think....GRILLING! So, given unlimited sources and available toppings, let us know at 616-527-WION how would YOU build your ultimate burger?

Recorded on the repair bench in the WION engineering room, we thought you'd enjoy this video of us actually "dubbing" via microphone to a digital file of this 1929 recording so we could play it for you on the air as a feature...showing the song THEN and NOW. This is what the mechanical motor looks like in a 1912 phonograph in Jim Carlyle's collection of "vintage" items. The machine used […]
