    Subject:  Big Broadcast WAMU

    I have just discovered that WAMU has an OTR program called Big
    Broadcast. It features 4 hours of programs and is available archived
    on-line. Haven't had a moment to listen to it [removed]

    [ADMINISTRIVIA: Um, yeah, The Big Broadcast has been around for a little
    while; I have reels recorded of the show when John Hickman was hosting. He
    started the show in the 1960's as Recollections. It's now hosted by Ed
    Walker, one of the Joy Boys and all-around nice guy I've met a few times over
    the years at various OTR gatherings. It's a Sunday Night staple in the [removed]
    area, and available on-line at [removed] as Joe noted.

    While we're mentioning OTR shows available world-wide on the Net hosted by
    subscribers to the Internet OTR Digest, don't forget WBAI's Golden Age of
    Radio, hosted by my buddy Max Schmid - another Sunday night routine, this
    time for folks in the New York area. (Since they're on at the same time, I
    have to cheat and have the server stream-write both so I can listen.) Hit
    [removed] for the details and the last show archived for a week.

    Of course, Saturday afternoons there's Chicago's Those Were the Days,
    originated by legend Chuck Schaden and now hosted by Steve Darnall. [removed]
    for the live feed, archives at [removed], and thanks for reminding
    me I missed last Saturday's show - know what I'm doing this afternoon!

    There are more; Barbara Sunday and Bobb Lyons, the Gassman brothers, and
    more, but I think we need a a special issue to list them. We'll deal with
    that after I talk to you about the issue I wanted to put together with a
    list of clubs, which won't happen until after I clear some other projects
    from my plate.

    Thanks, Joe, for giving me the excuse to name-drop.  ;)

    Oh, one more thing - I hope to be making an announcement soon about a new OTR
    show, co-hosted by a certain young [removed]  --cfs3]

    Folks;

       REPS (Radio Enthusiasts of Puget Sound) Twitter account announced the
    passing this afternoon of Dick Beals, WXYZ radio actor who portrayed Dan Reid
    in The Lone Ranger and who was possibly best known as the voice of Speedy
    Alka-Seltzer. He was a frequent guest at OTR conventions around the country,
    and was even the one-time president of REPS.
