The Big Broadcast is a Sunday night tradition for families throughout the WAMU listening area.

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.

Saying Goodbye To Ed Walker

Ed Walker spent 65 years on the radio. His last program was unlike any other.

Happy Sunday.

An average lineup until 9:30pm, never heard of Arch Obolers Plays...then we hit the sweet spot at 10pm with Suspense! and The Clock (I think was good)...

How’s everyone?

Arch Obler's 15 minutes shorts are quite scary and good. However tonight's Arch Obler sounds like one of those end of WWII liberal pipe dreams of a coming United Nations new world order that was very popular at the time.

At the time, Sinatra did a song "The House I Live In" which was a manifesto for the coming new liberal society where sharing is caring, and Big Brother Barney the purple dinosaur would rule the land.

Thank you very much. I expect you’re right given our loser SJW host, but I’ll need to check out the regular shows (:

It seems as though he’s toned down his political comments, doesn’t it? Only the occasional insulting remark to remind us how ‘un-pc’ the programming is.

Yeah, the new host is definitely PC SJW. I sure miss Ed a lot. Ed was definitely not PC. He wanted to play episodes of Amos 'n' Andy but the station management quashed the idea.

One good resource for OTR is archive.org. Zillions (!) of OTR episodes for free downloads.

Thanks for your weekly updates. They are very much appreciated!

Hey Gina, it’s been a sunny weekend here. Lot’s of errands and relaxation. You? Staying dry?

Yes, he’s not as lecturing as before, but still a loser. It was all about him when he started.

We got another 2 1/2 inches yesterday evening. Bad lightning, too. It zotted our ISP gateway’s battery backup, but Keith had a 12 V power supply, and it worked to get us back online.

I did a batch of melt-and-pour goat’s milk soap today in little silicone, flower-shaped cake molds. I had four essential oil smells I used in it. It’s good soap.

Our SJW wants to keep focusing on the scars from the past. Pathetic.

He’s insufferable.

The website claims “The show features a collection of vintage radio shows from the ‘30s, ‘40s, and ‘50s” yet Horwitz habitually injects other items, abusing the program and his audience.

Lucky for us, as soon as the Big Broadcast starts, we tune in to 20th Century Radio for Gunsmoke and E.G. Marshall.

He just made a smug vapid remark about Trumps immigration policy. Lol. He’s unworthy to host the program.

Yes, just as I was enjoying the addition of the Texas Rangers, he promotes sanctuary cities. That deserves an email tomorrow. The people were not illegal.

Yes, he’s wholly unworthy. *SPIT!* I can only imagine that Ed would be—at the very least—sad at his conduct.
