Longtime radio personality and The Big Broadcast host Ed Walker passed away early on Oct. 26 at age 83. We invite you to leave your thoughts and remembrances.
Ed Walker spent 65 years on the radio. His last program was unlike any other.
Slightly off-topic but related, is a clip from “The Big Broadcast of 1938” movie. A divorced couple meet at the bar on a cruise ship, played by Bob Hope and Shirley Ross, who sing “Thanks for the Memories.” A delightful and bittersweet encounter, the tune became Bob Hope’s theme song for the rest of his career. The clip is 6 minutes, 14 seconds and has a brief beginning with W. C. Fields, doing what W. C. Fields does.
