WTLC Legends Reunite: Sharing Their Favorite Memories with DJ Geno

Indianapolis came together to honor a true legend: DJ Geno, who recently marked his 40th anniversary on the airwaves.

To celebrate, WTLC gathered former and current personalities to share their favorite memories from the station’s rich history since its founding in 1968.

The event wasn’t just a reunion, it was a heartfelt conversation about what WTLC has meant to Indianapolis and to the lives of those who helped shape its voice.

DJ Geno reflected on what it meant to bring back generations of WTLC talent — not “old DJs,” but family.

From legendary on-air hosts to behind-the-scenes staff, the night reminded everyone how powerful the WTLC bond truly is.

Geno set the stage with one simple question to his colleagues: “What’s your favorite WTLC memory?” The answers painted a picture of joy, service, and history.
