  • 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.
