What a great trip and insight into my memory lane
Oh my I just want to give 100 stars and compliment this project. I’m a 19 year Tower Records employee veteran. I started at Tower Stockton, then transferred to Tower Sports Arena in San Diego and I ended my career in Tower Dallas. I don’t have any interesting stories. I was such a naive boring girl that I wasn’t interacted with much. But I love hearing all of these stories. I wish I had an interesting story to tell to be among these great story tellers. I miss the people in charge that really influenced me and shaped the person I became from age 18 to 37. People like Jeff Skoien, Dave Palmer, Roger Hahn, Rick Ohren, Bill Duffy and Kevin Cassidy stick out to me the most. Anyway I just love hearing all of these stories.

Love reliving that Tower experience
I worked as a Merchandiser in the Movie Department at Tower Records Lincoln Center for 3 years, and was there when those bastard liquidators took it all from us. One of the best eras of my life. Fantastic stories, celebrity encounters, and most importantly, the most amazing co-workers anyone could ask for. Thanks for honoring the legacy of Tower, Bob! Fantastic listen! Tower forever!

… but I’m loving hearing the stories of what was happening behind the scenes. It’s nice to take a weekly trip back in time.

I have been loving hearing the stories from the people who made Tower, Tower. I’ve laughed, smiled, cheered and teared up. Keep up the great work!

Number 1 in the bag!
A little slow going at first but it’s always good to hear Squiggly drop his Tower stories. It was fun. Keep up the good work Bob!! 💜
