And each day, host Ron Trucks takes you through that story - part history lesson, part trivia fun - in less time than it takes to order your Starbucks. And on Fridays? We cut loose with bsnsBloopers: the missteps, meltdowns, and epic fails that prove business doesn’t always go according to plan.","last_synced_at":"2026-07-20T10:20:36.608624+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/bsnshistory-7760425"},"episode":{"title":"June 18, 1948: The Record That Changed What Music Could Be","slug":"june-18-1948-the-record-that-changed-what-music-could-be","published_at":"2026-06-18T05:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/bsnshistory-7760425/june-18-1948-the-record-that-changed-what-music-could-be","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/bsnshistory-7760425","url":"https://www.bsnsDailypodcasts.com","audio_url":"https://episodes.captivate.fm/episode/03768837-61a0-4376-bb69-ace7cf225215.mp3","summary":"On June 18, 1948, Columbia Records introduced the LP record at a press conference in New York, and the album era of popular music began. The 33 1/3 rpm vinyl disc held twenty-three minutes per side, compared to four minutes on the standard format it replaced. What followed was a format war with RCA Victor, fifty years of music built around the album as an artistic statement, and a vinyl revival that outlasted the CD that was supposed to kill it. From bsnsHistory, the daily podcast about the moments when business quietly reshaped the world. Written and hosted by Ron Trucks. Research and editing by Rodney Russ. Sound design by Angela Cahoy. Music by Cody Martin and Soundstripe.
