Blast from the 90s

Blast from the 90s is the dedicated spin-off nostalgia radio show created and hosted by British presenter Gary Hopkins. Launched in 2020 following the success of his 1980s iteration, this weekly syndicated broadcast swaps out neon and leg warmers for bucket hats, whistles, and the distinct sounds of 1990s music.

The show follows the exact same interactive, listener-driven format as his other decade shows. Listeners are encouraged to call or write in to share memory-evoking tracks from the decade, such as: [1]

• Their first music single purchased in the 1990s
• The song they danced to at a high school prom or disco
• The music they walked down the aisle to at their wedding [1]

Every episode also tests the audience's 90s musical trivia with a signature lyrical knowledge quiz that blends easy and difficult pop-culture throwbacks. [1]
