Overview

D Simpson's relationship with 88.9FM WERS started off the way anyone's might: by listening. From a teenage fan tuning in from Mattapan to becoming on-air talent while a student, D's relationship with Boston's beloved station has grown and transformed over the years. He later stepped on as the Operations Manager and now serves as its General Manager. Georgette knows better than anyone how special D is, having been mentored by him while at Emerson herself. The pair reunite to talk about the importance of mentorship, creating your voice, speaking your truth, and letting "it's funny how things turn out" become your motto.
