  • Worth a listen

    Good archival content but how in heaven’s name to you mispronounce Al Bowlly’s name as “Brawley” multiple times? Inexplicable.

  • What a great piece of broadcast history

    I remember listening to the You Are There programs in my local library when I was a kid and was enthralled at how it made you feel like you were really there at the scene of all these historic events. The Assassination of President Lincoln episode is particularly gripping. Thank you ITunes and Dennis Humphrey for making You Are There available to a new generation of history buffs and anyone who enjoys good radio theatre.
