Times Past Podcast

Listen To and Download Old Time Radio Shows For Free. Once upon a time, not long ago, there was no internet, no CD players, and no television. Books, newspapers, movies and radio was the form for family entertainment Radio at that time was not anything like we know it today. Radio today is background music, playing music, announcing time, the weather and newscast. Radio between 1925 and 1955 was the ?Golden Age of Radio?. Some like to call it Radio Drama or Audio Theater. By about 1960 ?Old Time Radio? had almost disappeared completely. http://calfkiller.googlepages.com/oldtimeradio
