Come back to the tradition and warmth of Christmas in the Golden Age of Radio, with the great performers and shows of yesteryear. Go shopping with Jack Benny. Go to the snow covered woods with Johnny Dollar. Go to Bethlehem with Family Theater. The voices of Vincent Price, George and Gracie, Bergen and McCarthy, Abbott and Costello, Red Skelton, Jimmy Durante, and more are lifted in story and song. They celebrate the yuletide with equal parts hope and hokum, silliness and sacrifice, merriment and mystery....

Very clever writing
a nice mix of Christmas stories from the 19 thirties and forties radio programs. I loved Abbott and Costello and their word play. baby Snooks was also very entertaining. so get that mug of hot chocolate ready light the fire and sit back and get some Christmas cheer.

Love the walk down memory lane.
Love the walk down memory lane. I remember listening to the radio as a child in SC. Then later in NY and PA. We did have a TV in the 50's. But the radio was on all day and only TV in the evening. L hope to listen to more shows.
Thanks. Angie
