This is the story about the night disco music died. Brought to us by the heavyweights at Gimlet Media, this episode looks back at “Disco Demolition Night”, a summer night in 1979 in which a Chicago rock radio DJ with a vendetta against disco music invited the crowd at a baseball game to throw their disco records into the playing field for them to be destroyed. What started as a goofy stunt quickly turned into violence and a public display of racism and hate that eventually led to the sunsetting of an entire genre. This is the opener of an eight-episode season of intriguing stories you thought were about endings – that are actually about beginnings.
