"The Big Broadcast is a Sunday night tradition for families throughout the WAMU listening area. Each week, Big Broadcast host Ed Walker offers listeners priceless recordings of popular radio programs from the '30s, '40s and '50s. Priceless, especially, for a man whose first sentence as a child was, 'Turn the radio on.' "

Thanks for keeping the ping list going.

You help to keep classic radio alive. Thanks.

I assume Stan Freburg is retired now. Is that correct? Do you know if anyone has taken over his show, “When Radio Was?”

I used to listen to that show whenever I could back in Seattle. I can’t find golden-age shows in the Philadelphia area (through the radio, that is). Any ideas?

Phooey, the radio show comes on at midnite to 1 AM in my WBBM area.

I wouldn't tune in that late to hear a play-by-play of the Chicago Bears against the Twelve Apostles.

I listened to classic radio for many, many years when it was on during the day (Saturday) in the Chicago area.

Bummer.
