How WAMU Is Preserving Radio History With Murray Horwitz (Ep 10)

  • Resumen

  • There was a unique period of radio from the 1930s to the 1950s called network radio, where shows similar to TV shows aired on radio stations.

    Since 1964, WAMU has aired reruns of these shows on their show called The Big Broadcast.

    On this episode, show host Murray Horwitz and producer Jill Ahrold Bailey discuss the show's history, including the history of former hosts John Hickman and Ed Walker.

    We discuss how Murray and Jill find the episodes' recordings, some of the ads that seem silly by today's standards, and how they deal with content that could be offensive to today's audience.

    Murray also shares how he keeps the show fresh and relevant and how the audience has shifted from listeners re-listening to shows they grew up with to listeners hearing them for the first time.
