  • Old Time Radio

    Many Boomer friends that were also military children, aka Army Brats, heard many radio broadcasts that had been recorded and played by the Armed Forces Overseas Radio service. Me, I discovered Great Detectives, and now Snack Wagon in the past decade as I listened to podcasts while recoverering from 5 orthopedic surgeries.( 2 more to go!) Thank you Adam! Too poor to contribute but I tell everyone about your Old Time series.

  • A treat for OTR fans

    Adam does another solid job of introducing the listener to shorter radio programs that many of us are too young to recall. Growing up in the ‘50s I recall my parents listening to some shows but I love hearing things that are new to me.

Jimmy Stewart Sings the Joys of Bachelorhood
Q: What does the central joke about Jimmy Stewart's bachelor status reveal about the era's attitudes toward marriage?
The bit uses humor to both tease and normalize marriage as a social expectation for men, while also playing up Stewart's bachelor image as a punchline, reflecting mid-20th-century celebrity culture where marriage was a common topic in lighthearted entertainment.
Show Stoppers: Abbott and Costello (Second Helping)
Q: How did you meet and decide to work together?
They didn't know each other in the early days but eventually found common ground in burlesque and comedy, which led to working together and rising to stardom.
