KRCL's 'Maximum Distortion' — a heavy metal show — comes to an end after 19 years.
Hosts Forgach and Cody D. talk about their friendship, on and off the air, and the metal music they have championed for two decades.
And it’s almost over. This Wednesday, Forgach and Cody D. will host their final episode of “Maximum Distortion.” The show will come to an end after 19 years.“Rude Awakening,” a punk and ska music show hosted by Liz Schulte that had been playing in the Wednesday 7-10 p.m. time slot, will be moving to the slot previously filled by “Maximum Distortion,” according to Gavin Dahl, KRCL’s executive director. The 7-10 p.m. slot will be filled by a former DJ, Ma Black, with a new show called “Nova FM.
Neither of them had any experience in radio, but they both had a passion for heavy metal. At the time, Forgach said, the station didn’t want a two-person show. The friends worked it out — the time slot then was from 1 to 3:30 a.m., and Dangel would sneak into the studio around 2:30 a.m. “It seems like either people like the music or they hate the music. Supposedly, some people stick around because we can be moderately funny at times. It’s loose. It’s a real loose show,” Forgach said.
Meads said he isn’t a night person, though, so he bought a USB antenna to plug into his computer and he recorded the show every week to listen during the day. For the last five to eight years, Forgach said, Meads has sent him all those recordings.
