1938 [removed] Kaltenborn made broadcasting history by covering a crisis in
Czechoslovakia for CBS beginning on this day. Kaltenborn was so devoted
to his work that he slept in the studio for 18 days while bringing
updates to his appreciative audience.
9/13
1931 Vaudeville star Eddie Cantor was heard for the first time on
NBC. The Chase and Sanborn Hour became one of the most popular radio
shows of the 1930s.
1937 The first broadcast of Kitty Keene, Inc. was heard on the NBC Red
network.
9/14
1936 NBC presented John's Other Wife for the first time. Actually,
John's other wife was not his wife at all. She was his secretary.
9/15
1934 NBC presented The Gibson Family to American audiences. The
program was the first musical comedy drama to be broadcast. Ernest
Whitman and Eddie Green were featured members of the cast and were
billed as "network radio's only colored comedians." The show originated
from the studios of WEAF in New York City.

Subject: Mid-Atlantic Nostalgia Convention
This Thursday, Friday and Saturday the Mid-Atlantic Nostalgia Convention will
video stream live on Facebook. You can watch the old-time radio re-enactments,
slide show presentations and celebrity panels all weekend as they happen. This
also includes Saturday's Metro Washington Old Time Radio Club Meet, radio's
Truth or Consequences, Ian Grieve's Australian radio presentation, etc. All
FREE. If you do not have Facebook, I apologize. We used third party companies
to stream in the past but since they charged a fee, I had to charge a fee.
Through Facebook the service is absolutely free.
