Howard Mcnear is almost everywhere in old time radio programs.

This episode aired on my Mom's 25th birthday. I wonder if she and Dad were listening to it that evening.

The US government, extolling the nutritional value of margarine and other wholesome foods since 1941.

This is Blackface. They are mocking Black people. When it became tv show, they cast two Blackmen. Al Joelson was White and painted face. The mocking in song Mammy is unbelievable. Simple painting face is not the same.

75 anniversary of the movie battleground. 80 years ago this December the Battle of the Bulge occured.

Imagine Wal-Mart and Amazon doing this

This is truly wonderful. Almost better than the movie

Better job he'll be driving a better cab

18:33, 19:48, 24:41 *Anthrax (Bacillus Anthacis)* , better known as "Red Death", a cattle disease that can spread to people by breathing or by contact.

Ever thought about suicide? Watch the movie.

They really do like their murder as a problem solver.

Thank you. Wonderful stuff.

🥰

just started this ON 12/17/2024 AND LOVE all of these

This is the science fiction I grew up on. The kind that makes you think, not just recycled Flash Gordon stories like Star Wars!

This makes me think that Rockford (files) got hit as many times as Marlow did in his time. 😮

It's like the saying goes: "Nobody likes a rotten sheriff, a dirty judge, a crooked lawyer/attorney, a phony grand jury, and a kangaroo trial."

Sounds like they always getting screwed

Thanks for the info. Always interested about the end of radio show.

❤

0:22 "Didd hie saaj 'Mellomen', 1 aw Thvrl Ravenscrofts' grovps?"

Ts is so magnificent🥲🙏

Tuesday

Thank you

Originally broadcast on CBS (under the sponsorship of 3M [Scotch tape]) on December 2, 1956 at 5:05pm(et). This was Jack's final radio broadcast; repeats of earlier episodes were heard on Sundays {"THE BEST OF BENNY"}; a repeat of the January 30, 1955 episode {"Jack and Don Visit the Beverly Wiltshire Health Club"} was later heard that evening.

Two minutes in, and Joe has predicted The Purge.

This shit scared me so bad when I was a kid. I remember when I was like 6 (in the 2000s) some station was doing re-runs of this show I guess?? But my mom liked it so at night when we went to sleep she put it on & the intro always scared the fuck out of me

Glad I found you!

There are parallels to the Siegfried story.

What a different world. What happened?

I have a genuine question ,does this guy have kleptomania ???

The Defence Counsel's increasing levels of insistency in his objections clearly shows he was fully aware that evidence of ballistic analysis would clearly blow his case out of the water and also make him look incredibly stupid for passing it off as scientific nonsense...

I love these old shows

Thank you for these outstandingly stories. for WMAQ radio and The Chicago Defender newspaper. I remember Both well❤

LISTENING 16 Dec 2024

The full recording, which I believe is 18 hours long, is available on Audible.

0:19 _(Paladin pulls gun out of its holster, cocks the hammer and points to the audience.)_ "In all my life, I've only seen a dozen real killers. But I've seen ten-thousand people who'll sit back and let murder happen. Which is the greater evil?" _(Paladin carefully lets the hammer of the gun down gently, without letting it fire, and withdraws his gun back into its holster which shows off the attached silverish figure of a knight chess-piece.)_

Nice. I had not heard that before.

Another hidden gem. 🎄

Exceptional Christmas episode! TY!

Beautiful story!

I wish everyone today were as levelheaded and thoughtful as Jimmy Stewart's characters.

This was one of the stories portrayed in the movie "The Illustrated Man".

**YIKES!**

So lovely to spend a quiet evening hearing glories from many years ago still giving their beauty, still blessing our world. It is the grace and power of God that so much that feeds our souls is still feeding earth’s people. Thank you. Thank you.

I also had the set of cassettes of this many years ago (and still listen to a random one here and there), but for those who haven't heard this before, it's a real treat. More than anything else you can find, this gives you a taste of what radio was really like, not just the highlights or some episodes of classic shows, but the full range of what you heard while working, washing the dishes, cleaning the house, etc. So glad this will be available to new generations via YT----it's "you are there" history that's priceless.

Wow this is great thank you

What does Marjorie care about Leroy? She’s just jealous because she’s not a boy and can’t do rugged things like standing out in the snow.

Radio pioneers for sure. Amoss N Andy was the first program that didn't stereotype black Americans. Way ahead of their time. Best radio show ever.

Wth...
