Shownotes

Early November of 1988 carried a charge of its own. The cold settled in, holiday lights started creeping into storefronts, and the radio felt bigger and brighter with every turn of the dial. It was a season shaped by ambition, attitude, and songs that wrapped themselves around everyday life.

This week we rewind to a chart full of late-decade confidence, the kind of lineup that drifted through classrooms, warmed up mall afternoons, and turned weekend plans into something electric. No spoilers here. Just tune in and let November 1988 open up again.
