Chuck Schaden’s
25th ANNIVERSARY SHOW
“Thanks for Listening”

Originally broadcast on WNIB
Saturday, April 29, 1995

AS WE COMPLETE 25 years of Those Were The Days broadcasts we express our appreciation with what we hope is a very special program.

We’ll share some memories of our quarter-century on the air and include clips from our broadcasts and interviews.  In addition, we’ll have extensive highlights of the TWTD Anniversary Party held at Chicago’s Swissotel a week earlier as a benefit for the Museum of Broadcast Communications.

The party featured guest stars Shirley Bell Cole in a re-enactment of Little Orphan Annie;  Bill Idelson in a re-enactment of Vic and Sade; and Fred Foy in a re-enactment of the origin story of The Lone Ranger.  The radio stars were joined by members of the Those Were The Days Radio Players for the sketches which also include The Bickersons and The Charlie McCarthy Show.

The three special guest stars were interviewed by Chuck while announcer Ken Alexander added his special talents to the celebration.
