Thank you for that! The Phil Harris and Alice Faye show was my first experience in the Golden Age of Radio. It was on a long road trip in 2011 and I was just twirling through my Satellite radio stations when I stumbled onto this glorious show. I was born too late to have experienced it first hand, but I have made up a lot of ground since that day. It’s still my favorite show, but I’ve added dozens of others to my list of hits! I Love an Adventure, The Saint with Vincent Price, and so on and so on…….. forever.
It’s sites like this one that deserve a lot of credit for bringing radio back into our lives. Thanks for your time and effort
