  • Why Z104 (WWZZ) Didn't Last With Mathew Blades (Ep 13)
    Mar 2 2025
    In 1996, a new Top 40 station launched in Washington.

    Z104 was upbeat and fun and did very well in the ratings for many years. Mathew Blades worked nights at the station for its first four years and later returned as its last morning host.

    On this episode of the DCRTV Podcast, Mathew talks about what made Z104 such a great radio station and why it eventually failed.

    Mathew also shares how he was fired twice from the radio station and learned, from a listener calling the request line, that the station was getting ready to flip formats.
