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.

Hi All, how's everyone doing with the hurricane?

I like tonight's lineup a lot...never heard of Allen's Alley...Jerry Lewis (while not funny) makes sense...The Mysterious Traveler is gold...Carry On, Canada seems fun...can't remember the Fourth Estate but it sounds good...and ending well with an Escape.

All’s well in the mid-Atlantic...prayers out to those down south...

Hey, what’s METV? You’re going to stay up all night for those?

Hi, Vision! How’s it going?

We’re fine. I’ve been FReepmailing with Viking all week about the storm. Thank the Lord it hasn’t been as bad as it COULD’VE been, although it’s rough.

[Vision]

Good! What I've been hearing has not been good.

Life is fine up here. Seasoned the new blackstone this weekend. But we're only getting up the 72f which is too cold for early Sept.

[WXRGina]

Oh, you have the beautiful weather. It’s super-nice here now, too. We’re getting a coolish breeze, a tiny northeastern edge of the system.

Your blackstone—you mean a pizza stone-type thing, or something else?

[Vision]

A griddle. I thought I mentioned this...here’s a youtube guy...

Oh, COOL! It’s the Waffle House!

“At a time when we’re so divided.”

No one mentions it was obamalamadingdong and the left which has divided the county.

[WXRGina]

Thank goodness we don’t listen to him anymore. At showtime, we tune in 20th Century Radio. We get Gunsmoke, Dragnet, Sam Spade and more.
