'Tis the Season

Holiday Traditions from the Golden Age of Radio

Steve Darnall presents the history of the holiday season on the radio. R

For many people, the holidays are a time of traditions—and there were plenty of entertaining traditions during the golden age of radio, from Jack Benny's annual shopping trips to Lionel Barrymore's portrayal of Ebeneezer Scrooge. This presentation offers a box full of classic seasonal sounds from radio's past, designed to spur the imagination and share a bit of Yuletide spirit. For more than a decade, presenter Steve Darnall has had the opportunity to share his twin fascinations for American history and popular culture as the host of Those Were the Days and the publisher of Nostalgia Digest.
