"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.' "

Great thread, thank you for posting. If anyone is interested, there’s an app you can get called Shoutcast and there are many channels that stream old time radio. I listen to it every night. Some of the recordings leave commercials in and these range from peddling cigarettes to Pepsi to some good old fashioned patriotic stuff.

Some of my favorite stations that you may also enjoy are “Audio Noir”, “OTR Mystery” and “AM 1710 Antioch OTR”.

Cheers everyone and happy listening!
