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.

Happy Sunday to you, too, Vision! I hope you’re doing well. :-)

[Vision]

Glad to hear it.

Hey Gina, life is swell.

[WXRGina]

Good deal! Same here, thank the Lord.

I’ve been soaking a couple of beef filets in pineapple juice since yesterday. They should be excellent on the grill later.

[Vision]

Nice. I’m still all about sous vide.

[WXRGina]

Mmmmmm!

Betty Ford concession speech? What does that have to do with classic radio?

[Vision]

We’ll find out. The attempted nationalizing of the steel industry was interesting.

Evening, folks. Such as it is.
