"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.' "

Happy Sunday evening, Vision.

"But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: for men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away, for his name is Obama."

Hey. It’s getting cold up here.

Hello, All! Gulfport, MS checking in!

[Vision]

Great. Johnny Dollar is becoming my favorite of the first three standard programs.

[WXRGina]

Mr. Dollar is cool as a cucumber! We love this show, too.

RIP Elmer Charles Bigelow.

We're under a freeze warning for the third night in a row. Amazingly, I still have a few tomato and pepper plants with fruit on them. And damned if they're not shouldering the cold. I may be picking a tomato or two for the salad on Thanksgiving, believe it or not. I otherwise brought in all the house plants mid-week in anticipation of the cold snap, and now they're saying it'll get back in the mid 70's during the week. I despise living near the Gulf.
