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 Night...Classic Radio Time...

Howdy-doo.......

I bought a cd-set of “Shadow” radio shows recently. It’s strange considering how many old OTR items I’ve listened to over the years, yet I’m just really not that familiar with this famous, iconic radio show. Had a couple of poorly-sounding, poorly-recorded cassette tapes of the show thirty years ago, and I can’t say they inspired me to seek out more examples. But I blame it on the bad audio, which can inhibit enjoyment of such fare.

So it just seemed time I ought to give the show a new listen. After all, over the years, I’ve read some of the old pulp stories, seen the serial and one of the Monogram movies, and even used to buy some of the DC “Shadow” comics in the 1970s.
