Summary
This week on And The Year Was 1985, we’re joined by the incredible Raina Douris—host of World Cafe and one of the most respected voices in music broadcasting today.
Raina takes us behind the mic to share her journey from Canadian radio to the global stage, including her time at CBC Music and what it’s like curating and hosting one of NPR’s most iconic music programs. We dive into her passion for storytelling, the art of a great interview, and the responsibility of spotlighting both legendary artists and emerging talent.
We also get into:
- The evolution of music discovery from the 90s to today
- Memorable interviews and behind-the-scenes moments
- How radio still shapes culture in the streaming era
- Artists and sounds that are defining the current music landscape
If you love music, radio, and the stories behind the artists, this is a conversation you don’t want to miss.
